When will the referee rule a re punt?
The referee in football doesn't rule the re-kick rather the team that reaps the benefit of a penalty and chooses to re-kick. For instance; if a punt only goes 20 yards on a 4th and 12 punt and the defense was offsides; the referee just calls the penalty; the kicking team selects to enforce the penalty or re-kick. My answer - a referee seldom rules a punt to be rekicked. The kicking team will have that luxury ONLY if a penalty flag was thrown and in their favour.

If defense commits pass interfernce in endzone but catch is compleated and penalty is declined but later reversed on challange can the penalty be reassisted?
The challenge comes before any penalty is assessed. That is due to the fact that, in your question, the offense would not know whether to accept the penalty if they don't know what the outcome of the play is. So what would happen would be A) the referee will accept the other team's challenge, B) make a ruling to the final outcome of the play after looking at the replay (completed or incompleted pass), and then the offense will decide whether or not to accept the penalty.
