I enforce that as out of sight, sound, smell....
You said "fan, coach or player"...For me, this would just be "coach or player" as I do not address or engage the spectators.
2) Straight by-the-book, ejections are per game. However, depending on the policy of the individual league or tournament, suspensions can be issued for future game.

ASA does not give the umpire the authority to eject anyone other than a game participant (team member).
Don't care about the fans. If it is bad enough that it affects the game, the coaches can deal with it. If they refuse to handle it, then we just stop playing.
