No.

Also, suppose I as umpire remove a pitcher for excessive conferences, excessive speed (SP), or continual violations in the delivery (SP). Three innings later, the pitcher returns to the mound to pitch and the coach informs me of the change. Do I say, "Sorry, coach, this pitcher can't pitch any more," or do I simply inform the other team of the change and leave it to them to protest the illegal pitcher? Naturally, the offending team would be risking having this player disqualified.

Unless the pitcher is reentering the BO, you may not get a "change" from the team.
Preventive umpiring would dictate that if you know this player is not allowed to pitch, you walk over and tell the manager to find another pitcher. If they sneak it by you, then the player becomes an Illegal Pitcher which, when discovered, is DQ'd.
