Txs with invalid signatures will create an invalid block, so I would say they are "rejected" rather than "censored".

The sample size of the picture is small, so the skew might not be that bad over time. However, the OCEAN's failure to attract >1% of the total hashpower is a revealing fact about the market's preferences.

If miners censor individual transactions for a long time, they still produce valid blocks. I don't think block validity is relayed to censorship.

Yes, even empty blocks are valid and reorgs are valid blocks as well. However, these blocks are not economically competitive in the long run (unless you have a massive short position on Bitcoin...)
