Your questions are answered in this Apple Support article for macs and this for iOS, IPADOS except there is no way to turn off pinning a message. However, since you have to intentionally pin it in the first place, then don't pin it.

Ok Joe thanks will save links. I have notes from past, you said I'm inadvertently pinning by holding too long?
Today this morning, a woman messaged me and her message was at top in circle pinned. Now this message was preexisting, been at bottom of 12 message in normal way for few weeks. I have zero recollection of holding anything too long but your pretty sure I pinned it?
Pernicious, not sure how I'm inadvertently pinning.
Ok just tested: hold down, then option comes up bottom un pin/ pin. But today did not do that, she went from unpinned to pin. Did not hold down and select to pin, crazy.
