She should've been dehorned when she was a calf. But you can dehorn her anytime the process is not going to affect her performance, such as not right after calving.

What would be a good cross with a beefmaster red angus cow?

Are you referring to a Beefmaster-Red Angus cross cow or either Beefmaster or Red Angus? If the former, a continental breed such as Limousin, Maine Anjou, Simmental or Charolais would be a good breed to put on this cross. If the latter, a good bull to put on a Beefmaster would likely be, once again, a Continental breed, or a distant British breed like Hereford. For Red Angus, you can't beat a Hereford over an RA to get a red-baldy.

Will the hard cell of a cow horn grow back?

Not sure what you mean here, but when a bovine is dehorned, the horns don't grow back, especially if they were cut at the root and not an inch away from the skull. If the horns were cut only an inch away from the skull, they still will grow, but not normally like they would if they were not cut off.
