Generally the summer heat will kill rye grass that is taking over. If it doesn't get hot enough in your area you can use a non persistent-contact herbicide made for weeds, not grass, and spray the rye grass.

Regular Rye grass that dies off in the winter will likely not harm a horse, however winter or perennial rye grass can contain the same toxins as fescue grass and cause the same problems in pregnant mares due to the endophyte toxin found in it. Rye Grass is also high in sugar and starch and should be tested before feeding.
Bermuda Grass in the summer, and Rye in the winter. This website has great information on growing grass in Arizona: http://www.phoenixtropicals.com/grass.html
Yes if the ryegrass is not a resistant variety
Yes it is a species of grass. Rye grass can be further divided into different types of grasses, including the domestic crop Rye, the wilder Russian Wild Rye, Altai Wild Rye, etc.
The rye grass's country of origin is the U.K.
Most grasses are dormant in the winter...you just enjoy the time off and they will come back in the spring. If you live somewhere where the weather is mild, you could plant rye grass for the winter over the other grass and you will see green grass.

yes
There's the cereal grass rye, and other rye grasses include the following:Altai Wild RyeRussian Wild RyeItalian Rye-grassAnnual Rye-grassWinter Rye-grassPerennial Rye-grassThe top two are a coarse grass that is commonly used for stock-pile grazing cattle in late fall to winter. The last four are annual grasses that are primarily grown as a temporary tame grass for pasturing cattle in the summer months when other cool-season grasses like smooth brome, crested wheatgrass, timothy, orchard grass and intermediate wheatgrass have all gone into dormancy for the hot summer days. This is primarily for regions like Northern and Northwestern USA and Canada that graze cattle.
Annual ryegrass is also known as lolium multiflorum. It is a very aggressive type of grass that seems to adapt to many environments very quickly. It is an awesome grass (glossy look) for lawn for a quick fill (only lasts for one season) and looks great in the winter, but is a terrible weed in cereal crops such as winter wheat. Ryegrass should not be confused with rye. They are completely different species.
