: 1. Is it legal for a robot to lift the square rack completely off of the playing surface and hold it there?

Yes, this is perfectly legal


: 2. Is it legal for a robot to forcefully latch onto the square rack like a pair of vise-grips, as long as no noticeable damage is done to the square rack?

Yes, but try to be reasonable with regard to clamping force. We will only have a limited supply of the square racks. If teams routinely start to crush them or otherwise damage them, we will have to start limiting this type of activity. So... Clamping on is OK, but don't break the thing.
