Most likely not. Perhaps an EF0 tornado but nothing higher than that.
But since tornado generally occur in warm weather the house would probably melt anyway.
The tornado caused damage to the house, but it is repairable. With the necessary repairs and renovations, the house can be restored to its original condition.
In The Wizard of Oz, Dorothy's house is transported to the Land of Oz by a tornado.
Most tornadoes are not strong enough to throw houses. Those few that are strong enough can sometimes thrown them great distances. In one case a houses was thrown 1/4 mile. However, when a house is picked up there is a good chance it will disintegrate in the air, in which case it won't be thrown so much as it will be scattered.
You can't, tornadoes are a feature of nature and a fact of life. If you are worried, either move location to where tornadoes are less common or build yourself a suitable tornado shelter and ensure your insurance covers you, your belongings and house.
Generally not, unless the house is very poorly built. Typical F1 damage to a house includes holes torn in the roof or loss of the roof surface, peeled siding, broken windows, and possibly the collapse of a garage door.

House Tornado was created in 1988.
It depends on how strong tornado is. The house would not stand a chance against an EF4 or EF5 tornado, and would likely be partially destroyed by a high EF3. Anything EF2 or lower would be unlikely to do more than remove the roof.
No house can offer 100% protection from a tornado. The best option is a house with a basement to go to in case of a tornado.
The house is invading the tornado's natural habitat, so of course the tornado will fight to keep its territory.
The safest place to be in your house during a tornado is in the basement.
A tornado can hit a house, but cannot happen indoors.

The wind speed of a tornado can vary greatly, but it can reach over 300 mph. While a tornado's destructive power can be significant, the ability to completely destroy a house is influenced by various factors such as construction materials and the intensity of the tornado. In severe cases, a tornado can quickly demolish a house within seconds.
Out of the ground, no. However, a strong enough tornado can wipe a house from its foundation. Normally this will earn a tornado a rating of EF4 or EF5, though if the house is poorly anchored an EF3 rating may be appropriate.
