Nothing to the plant, assuming the pump and filter are fitted correctly so there are no priming problems.
The water may of course accumulate at least some debris needing extra filtering.

Can you leave the pool pump off for 2 days?
The answer depends on a couple of things. Are you going to be swimming in the pool or will it be vacant? If nobody is going to be in the pool for those 2 days then you can shut your pool pump off. After shutting the pump off you would want to close whatever valves are there to isolate the pump so that you do not lose the prime as it will make it easier when restarting the pump back up.

Is it possible for a hydrostatic valve to leak pool water only when the pump is not running?
YES THERE IS A LOT OF TRASH THAT CAN GET IN THE VALVE TO MAKE IT LEAK. YOU MIGHT BE ABLE TO CLEAN IT FURTHER I found that with the pump running, the pool water was rising as apparently the pump was pulling water out of the ground. This was with the pool water low and the skimmer plugged off in order to try to filter after a bad storm. When I shut off the pump, the pool water went down as the valve did not seat properly.

What happened if torn off the pump in a pool above ground?
The pump acts as the suction to pull the water into the filter and return it to the pool's jets. What item was torn off? You would have to close the valves on your returns so the pool's water does not come out through the broken part. Can you post pics or explain more? Good luck!

How do you vacuum the waste in your below ground swimming pool?
Your question seems too easy as it is a basic requirement of pool cleaning. However: Attach your vacuum head to your side outlet (unscrew the cover in the side of the pool) using a floating hose. turn off the valves to the bottom drain and the skimmers, leave the pump setting on filtration, fill the hose with water and turn on the pump. After vacuuming the bottom of the pool, switch off pump and return valves to previous setting. be sure to backwash the filter after cleaning if required.
