Correct. The sub rule is, at least in part, to prevent a coach from shuttling players in/out over and over.
There is another rule that requires 5 players if 5 are available.
The two rules are in conflict. The resolution is that once only 5 are available, the issue being address by the sub rule is moot....so 5 play.

Again, correct. There is no rule that allows a player other than A6 to shoot the FTs if A6 is not disqualified and is not injured. Again, two rules are in conflict, and the right resolution of the conflict is to put A6 back in to shoot.
