A. Yes can be quashed after first motion if the defacto complainant also supports the petition at the time of hearing. However after final/second motion her support is not required assuming she has withdrawn her allegation in the mutual divorce petition.
B. Yes till she gets married.

a) it can be quashed at any time, but you have to approach the high court

b) she can claim share in the property after attaining majority subjected to some limitations/conditions/law

complaint can be quashed at any time, but now days high courts are directing the petitioners to face the trial.
Daughter can claim the maintenance from her father.
But in view of the recent Karnataka High Court judgment succession opens only after the death of the father. Amendment to sec 6 of the Hindu succession act is not retrospective it is prospective. Very worst and confusing judgment.
