Explanation of why Duterte came back knowing he would be arrested. Is it accurate?
He want to be martyred and become a hero. If he died in jail in Haque then that will cement his immortality among Filipinos, he is old and sick and had nothing to lose. The Filipinos are suckers for the underdog and Duterte know their psyche, this is a way for him to enhance his legacy.
If the police are real patriots, they should help overthrow Marcos.
There is a time and place, if Sarah is impeached then there will be trouble, that and his father dead will be the spark.

North American companies are more likely to hire Asian-American chief executives during periods of economic decline, possibly out of a stereotypical belief that the those CEOs will act in a self-sacrificing manner for the health of the company.

The reason why Marcos is so desperate to impeach her, once impeach she can't hold any gov't office, that's PLAN A but the elder Duterte enter the frame and he change the narrative of political persecution and harassment which the Marcos family are known for, so Marcos had to step back and change his plan.

From this episode, the senate president Escudero will delayed the impeachment and even shelve it, he know its a trap and he will not allowed himself to be use as the one who persecute Sarah.

Duterte is extremely popular in Philippines, right ? Is there a chance of mass protests sweeping the country as a result of his extradition to Hague, possibly forcing Marcos to step down ?

He is BUT he urge restrain, look its part of his strategy, he want to protect his legacy, he cannot violate the constitution by instigating an armed revolt that will tarnish his image and nationalist principle. If he died in the Haque, in a foreign land under foreign custody what will the Filipinos do? remember as a third world country we're very emotional and things may turn violent, so the political elite and the oligarchs will have to turn to Sarah Duterte to save them by supporting and financing a coup against Marcos. That's what happen during the 1986 EDSA Revolution, it was a revolt among the oligarchs and their cronies as they fight each other to survive.
