I believe the current understanding is that galaxies (that are not part of local groups of galaxies) don't orbit anything. There is no universal center, matter seems to be distributed more or less evenly no matter what part of the sky we observe, and the galaxies are moving away from one another according to the current established principles. Some galaxies are members of groups of galaxies, and perhaps some of these groups are slowly turning on an axis, a little bit like materials in an accretion disk.

How do galaxy rotate?

Each individual object (such as a star) revolves around the galactic center according to the laws of celestial mechanics. As a result, the objects closer to the center of the galaxy take less time for a complete revolution than the objects further out; the galaxy rotation is differential, meaning it does not rotate as if it were a solid object.
