Know absolutely nothing about the law; but if one pRESIDENT grants a pardon, couldn’t another PRESIDENT rescind that pardon if any additional evidence comes to light?

No. A presidential pardon is permanent. The receiver cannot be prosecuted for any federal crime committed during the specified period.
