When did Galileo come up with his theory earth spins and also orbits the sun?
Galileo first proposed his theory that the Earth spins and orbits the Sun in the early 17th century, around the early 1600s. This theory was a key component of his broader support for the heliocentric model of the solar system.
What is the theory?
The heliocentric theory is one which all planets revolve around the sun. Prior to this, there was a theory where all planets, including the sun, revolved around Earth. Galileo proved this theory to be false and proposed this heliocentric theory.
What lead to Galileo being put on trial?
Galileo expressed his support of the Copernican theory that the Earth and planets revolved around the Sun. But that wasn't exactly a trial.

Why was Galileo arrested and punished for publishing his theory on the earth and the sun?
He was arrested after publishing a book that advanced the heliocentric theory (the Earth going round the Sun) as fact and not just a scientific theory. The book portrayed the Pope as an imbecile, and as Galileo had already been warned that he could not say the movement of the Earth is a fact without proof, he was put on trial for heresy. At that time there was no proof that the theory is correct and Galileo was forced to admit it and retract. In later centuries more and more scientific evidence was discovered that forced everyone to accept that the Earth is in orbit round the Sun. So in a way Galileo was right all along but he just got himself into trouble with his aggressive behaviour. He made important scientific discoveries of his own but the heliocentric theory is not on the list.
Galileo's theory that the earth moves around the sun was supported by the Roman Catholic Church true or false?
False
What invention used by Galileo helped prove Copernicus theory that the earth revolves around the sun?

It's called the heliocentric theory (helios is sun) but it was not a fully fledged theory until well after Galileo's time.
