it is unclear if a two-term President could later be elected -- or appointed -- Vice President

Can't be VP if can't be President.

Ah, but what would happen if a 2-term president became Speaker of the House, and the president (or vice president) resigned?

As noted, it would wind up in court, perhaps even if the person involved recused themselves.
