As long as you are not "clean shaven", that's fine. That is the minimum requirement from a shar'i perspective. According to A.U Seyid Sistani, according to ihtiyat, it is haram. 

It is good to trim your beard, and make it look presentable, but you should not shave it. Although shaving could help it grow, but in cases, you become too hairy, and you don't want that as well. 

Just try to fix up your facial hairs, so your family might leave you alone and not persist on this. 

And Allah knows best

There is no kaffarah or anything to be paid, but there are two very important thing everyone must always remember.

1. Parents, or anyone being intimate must secure their privacy first, making sure there will be no intrusion, and have absolute certainty that nobody can or will be able to see or hear them. Even infant children should be away from their parents, and we have narrations from Ahlul Bayt (a.s.) that strongly censure parents being intimate with the presence of even a baby. 

2. Whenever someone is living with other people, he/she must always remember to announce themselves, knock doors, make a noise, say "Ya Allah", to inform others of their presence, and so on. This is to avoid seeing somebody without their clothes, or in a situation that they are uncomfortable in, etc. 

In the case something happens unintentionally, it should be forgotten, not mentioned, and just be stricter in observing these two points.

In this kind of situation, it is always best to have correct healthy communication with parents, to see the grounds, requirements and expectations the parents have towards who they want their child to get married to. 

You might think the father's excuse is baseless, or unfair, but your assessment might be wrong. 

The father is the guardian (wali), and he must act according to the interest of the daughter, which means if someone who is religious and has akhlaq, and is compatible to her (kuf`), proposes, and she expresses interest and approves, and everything is good from every other aspect, it is haram for him to refuse.

In Islam, it is called 'adhl (عضل), and it means the male guardian prohibiting marriage of women under his custody. And it is haram.

Acrylic nails are considered as zeenah, and therefore haram to wear in public. Furthermore, it would prevent water from getting to her skin/nails, which would invalidate her wudhu' and ghusl.

Should she avoid these situations, like not show it in front of non-mahram, and put it on after wudhu', her prayer will be valid.

Muslim women must observe correct hijab, which includes wearing socks, and not showing adornments (zeenah) to non-mahrams. The anklet would be covered with socks, and as for the nose piercing, if it is considered as zeenah, then it would be haram for her to wear it. 

If the anklet, or piercing, or any zeenah is considered as exposing in the haram way, although it is a sin, but it will not affect the validity of the wudhu.

Such a thing holds no significance or value. The second nikah will not nullify the first, and it is just meaningless to do so. These are unforetunately Western practicises of "renewing vows", and things like that, which a Muslim definitely does not need to do.

This Muslim woman should not be living with a non-Mahram person anyway. So, she needs to remove herself from that situation. 

As for the man doing mut'ah with her, that's going to be between them, and if they both meet the valid /halal requirements for it.
