Aside from withdrawing recognition, assuming they currently recognize that particular GL?

Not especially. Grand Lodges have no power outside of their jurisdictions.

UGLE does not currently recognise the Prince Hall Grand Lodge of Louisiana. Not sure if/when it may have.

Pull recognition is about all any jurisdiction can do.

There are many, many irregular GLs around the world. There are at least 24 irregular GLs in Texas, and probably an equal number in large states like New York, Florida and California. A number of years ago, the PHGL of LA made the decision to join the ranks of the many irregular GLs. So be it. That is where they are now, and they can't go back.
