If you damaged the drywall, then you should fix it. If the damage was caused due to a water leak or something that is unforeseen at the time a rental agreement was formed, then the landlord should repair the damages.
Landlord needs to fix it unless tenant damaged it. If the Landlord doesn't fix it call Code Enforcement.
The three day notice is also called "Fix or Quit". Which means in 72 hours you need to fix the breach, or quit the lease. If you pay the rent and the landlord accepts it, your leasehold continues. If you attempt to pay the rent and the landlord refuses it, keep a record of the date, time, and place (you may even wish to bring a witness with you). Refusing the rent, shows the landlord did not follow through properly on the 3 day notice to fix or quit. You chose the option to fix the breach but the landlord rejected it. While this may not fix the eviction, it will look better for you in housing court.
If you mean mounting drywall to a concrete or brick wall, it's necessary to fix 1x4 to the wall either with screws or gluing with construction adhesive. You fix these 2 feet apart, upright across the wall, then screw the drywall to the 1x4 s. (nailing will make them loose.)

Either cut out a square to the center of each joist either side of the hole and replace the drywall with a new piece cut to size. then tape and mud the joints. Also there are metallic screen patches made for small holes that stick to the existing drywall, and can be mudded over to fix the hole.
Probably. You withold monies to repair something your landlord will not fix, which is usually a health or safety issue. But this money is used to pay the individual that is going to actually fix the problem. So, if you have not used the money to fix the problem, then yes, you were basically withholding monies from your landlord PERIOD and yes, they can still sue you for withholding monies. So, I would say, yes, you would still have to pay them. One way or another, the landlord will be able to get this money.
If you have homeowners insurance I would call them and they can recommend the best person for you. If you are renting then it will be your landlord's job to fix it and you should call them.
If it's small spread mesh tape over it, then mud it. If bigger than doorknob size, put a patch of drywall into it then mesh tape and mud.
