You would typically be provided a written trespass notice which would require that the the notice include your name, DOB, etc. I'm not sure how refusing to provide ID would justify charging you with both Disorderly Conduct and Obstructing Legal Process.

There isn’t necessarily anything illegal about what you did, but other factors might’ve played a part in why you were pulled over. Speak with attorney directly about your situation for more specific answers about your situation.

Is it possible to file a motion to cancel the DANCO? Yes. Is it likely to be granted?

I assume that the home and property belongs to someone now. It is up to the owner whether you can go clean up the property, but presumably it is up to the new owner to take care of those issues. I'd stay off of the property absent permission from the owner.
