From original post it seemed like this was a desktop system with a discrete GPU

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
NAME VERSION FREEDRIVER TYPE

video-nvidia-470xx 2023.03.23 false PCI
sudo mhwd -r pci video-nvidia
video-nvidia cannot be removed but it can replaced by another driver
try installing video-nvidia-470
sudo mhwd -i pci video-nvidia-470xx
If that does not work, reinstall the free driver
sudo mhwd -i pci video-linux
and revert all the changes made in original post. Manjaro tools for GPU drivers should create any system reconfigurations automatically, editing system files should not be necessary

I do not know why I can not remove video-nvidia
The error messages are very clear, though.
:: removing nvidia-utils breaks dependency 'nvidia-utils' required by python-nvidia-ml-py
:: removing nvidia-utils breaks dependency 'nvidia-utils' required by python-pynvml
So, you must remove python-pynvml and python-nvidia-ml-py first.
sudo pacman -Rns python-pynvm python-nvidia-ml-py
sudo mhwd -r pci video-nvidia
