Yes that’s a toadstool. Annoying is probably putting it mildly. It could be that the anemones are stinging the hell out of it, and in response, the toad is excreting a bunch of toxins to try to keep them away. Should probably be running some carbon and get some space between the toadstool(s) and anemones.

How do I move the toadstool ?

You might be able to kind of peel it off the rock. I think I’ve seen someone suggest that. Not really sure though. It’s either that, or cut it off and attach it to something else. Only way I can think of doing it.
 
A few threads said toadstools can be sliced at the base and re-attached. Some also said peeled off. It looks like your zoa patch is also going to be consumed. Here's a post for the toadstool that might help:
 
My btas touch a lot of different things. Never had long term problems. Neighbors may get irritated but they always come right back within a day or so. Hope this ends up being the case on your end.

PS.
You'll know if it's attacking it. Keep a good carbon setup Incase the softy decides to go chemical.
