1) Yes, whoever rolled the dice modifies them last.  As the defender, you can modify his attack dice first, rerolling a hit/crit.

2)  Correct.  You could lock down his die against  Rage   or Target Lock rerolling.  Though if you reroll it onto a focus result, he could spend a focus token.

3) Yup.  A good example is "Mangler" Cannon: let's say you roll only 1 hit.  After the initial roll, your opponent modifies first and could use Sensor Jammer to change that hit to a focus.  However, dice can be modified any number of times (unless an effect like Emperor Palpatine or Accuracy Corrector says otherwise), so you could spend your focus token changing that focus to a hit, and then use the Mangler's ability and change that hit to a crit (both these opportunities trigger at the same time, so you get to choose the order).

Then let's say your opponent rolls defense and gets a single evade result. You modify first, and you might Juke that into a focus. Then the opponent goes... if he has a focus token he could undo the Juke, but if he doesn't, he's taking a crit from your mangler.

It's also important to note that there's no way to stop an effect that cancels a die result, as cancelling results isn't modifying. For example, you could use Crack Shot even if an effect says the defense dice cannot be modified (e.g. "Omega Leader"). Likewise adding to or subtracting from the number of dice before the initial roll isn't modifying, e.g. Jan Ors.
