The Three Spirits patch just added the ability to create sockets in items and then add gems to those. I've heard that adding a gem where there's one already will destroy the old one. Does that imply that there's no way to remove gems? What about if you use a hammer on an item that has been socketed?

Yes you can purchase at the store in game an item called (Unusual and normal) Artificier's Hammer which allow you too remove a gem socketted :
Note that the Unusual courier will be destroyed (if you read the descritpion of the Unusual Artificer's Hammer) but the item is not destroyed (after having tested) See this guide
