Lion is a reanimated lion, but you can’t tell unless you know the backstory. The only difference is that he is pink and has magic powers.

Steg, the fusion of Steven and Greg, can be viewed in a malicious way as fusion is a parallel to sex, however, Steg doesn’t represent an incestuous relationship. Other than that, no one is sexually abused in the movie

Not meant to be horrifying but one character is animated in the old-fashioned style where her body morphs and changes in cartoony supernatural ways. Arms extending like noodles and spiraling up on each other, for example

Yes? Spinel has a rejuvenator and slashes gems, making them poof and go back to how they were made. When it's used on Steven, it sends shocks through his body and then he can't use his powers.

Body dysmorphia is not body horror or gender dysphoria. Body dysmorphia is when someone percieves their body to be different than it actually is, and is most common in anorexics. Spinel, and nothing else in Steven Universe for that matter, ever comes close to resembling body dysmorphia.

There is a character "Steg" who is a fusion between father and son; although some prominent fusion characters seen in the show and the movie represent romantic relationships, fusion has also been used to represent platonic and familial relationships, so there is nothing inherently incestuous about this.
