Just a thought, all hypothetical. If Pence was part of the conspiracy to steal the election, also called overthrowing the legitimate government, he would be disqualified from holding public office.
Him and everyone involved who had previously sworn an oath to uphold and defend the Constitution would be disqualified under the 14th Amendment, Section 3, Disqualification Clause.
Congress does not replace members of the executive branch. They are elected. Congress elects the speaker on down the line in succession. They are elected shortly after the new congress is ratified.
Or Pence gets unexpectedly indicted for something.
Forced to resign,happened in the 70's

Make Judas Pence suffer the indignities of being a useless traitor.
Comic Con is a real thing...
Pence is an actor.
OR, Pence also gets arrested for something like oh treason, treasonous co-conspiracy, misprision. Something like that.
Louder for those in the back !,,,,,
Or Pence was relieved of duty already and someone else was made the VP?
But the VP can be replaced, by Congress, just the same as a president can.
