Yes, salt water pools can freeze in winter if the temperature drops low enough. It is important to take measures to protect the pool equipment and prevent freezing, such as running the pump, adding antifreeze, and using a pool cover.
What damage can a hard freeze do to an inground pool?
It can crack the pool and any pipes that has water in them that freeze. a way of protecting the pool is to float drums in a line along the middle of the pool there by leaving an unfrozen track along the middle into which the ice can expand. You should definitely empty the filter and exposed water pipes.

Drain it and cover it from the direct frost.

salt water does provide a lower degree of freezing temperature but the normal amount in a salt water pool is so low that the answer is "not enough to make a difference". Protect your pool and equipment from freezing as you would if it weren't a salt water pool
How long does it take for a pool to freeze?

There is a product called "Pool Anti-Freeze" that is a safe, non-toxic swimming pool cleaner. You can purchase it at the Aqua Superstore online and it is around $10 for a 1quart bottle of concentrated liquid.
Should you insulate swimming pool pipes underground?
I see no reason why you would insulate them. When you close your pool for winter you will purge (empty) your pump and pipes. The water in the pool would freeze long before the water will in the pipes under ground.
If you lived in an area with very cold winters should water be kept in you outdoor pool all winter Why or why not?
No, water should not be kept in your pool all winter. When it gets cold enough, the water will freeze. When water freezes, it expands. So when the water in your pool freezes and expands your pool will be ruined.
