I don’t know why the Church should stop at asking Pelosi to stop receiving Communion.

They should excommunicate her and have her arrested for trespass,should she ever step inside another Catholic Church.

They won’t of course.

Agree with the excommunication part, but although people living in open sin - without any desire to repent - should be denied church membership, they should still be allowed to attend services. Who can tell, maybe they'll hear something and the Holy Spirit will bring conviction in their hearts?
Certainly no access to the Lord's Supper. Not only for the sanctity of the Church, but also for the love of the lost sinner (as we all were at one time):

1 Corinthians 11
27 Wherefore whosoever shall eat this bread, and drink this cup of the Lord, unworthily, shall be guilty of the body and blood of the Lord.

Hebrews 10
30 For we know him that hath said, Vengeance belongeth unto me, I will recompense, saith the Lord. And again, The Lord shall judge his people.
31 It is a fearful thing to fall into the hands of the living God.

I believe they have asked her to stop receiving Holy Communion.

Addidtionally, she has excommunicated herself by her support of abortion.
