What does the catholic church do about corrupt leaders?

Is a monk's job to tell the Catholic Church if they are being corrupt?
Roman Catholic Answer First of all, the Catholic Church cannot, in and of itself, be corrupt; people in the Church may be corrupt, but the Church, itself, is the Mystical Body of Our Blessed Lord, who promised to pray for it, and send the Holy Spirit to guide it into all truth until the end of the world. Second of all, a monk's job primarily is to pray the Divine Office, to intercede for people, and for the whole Church. A monk, normally, is not even ordained, so would have NO business, whatsoever outside of his monastery. So the short answer to your question is a resounding "no" from whichever angle you consider it.
