I think this incident is enough where a Special Counsel is required.
The tearing up fo the SOTU speech is the alleged offence, but just to be sure, Pelosi's entire life should be investigated to see if she committed any other crimes. As part of the remit, everyone she knows should also be investigated to see if they ever committed any crimes too. Rudy Gulliani should be appointed as the Special Counsel and a group of prosecutors who have donated to Trump should lead the investigations.
For anyone who thinks that is not reasonable, then I would simply answer, what has she got to hide? If she were to complain about it, she would, of course, be admitting guilt.
I think once the Special Counsel if set up the first thing to do would be to subpoena all her financial records as well as anyone associated with her.

I think a Chinese collusion connection to Pelosi should also be explored. This seems to be a fairly common procedure these days.

Yes of course. Every element of her life and any potential crime she could have ever committed should be part of a Special Counsel remit.
Whoever willfully and unlawfully conceals, removes, mutilates, obliterates, or destroys, or attempts to do so, or, with intent to do so takes and carries away any record, proceeding, map, book, paper, document, or other thing, filed or deposited with any clerk or officer of any court of the United States, or in any public office, or with any judicial or public officer of the United States, shall be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than three years, or both.

Ah, so is this the thing the hair salon debacle is trying to distract us from?
If you mailed in a ballot, and that ballot has not been tabulated on election day, you should be able to walk into the booth and vote. The implication is, that in some close states, Democrats will have Republican ballots trashed, instead of tabulated.
If you check the Voting website, and your ballot has not been received by election day, you can "spoil" (cancel) the ballot and vote in person, if you want to.

I'm not sure Bill Barr can find that law, seeing he doesn't know whether it's illegal to vote twice, or not.
At any rate, President Trump ceremoniously handed the Vice President and the Speaker a fancy Xeroxed copy of his speech, as a matter of pomp and circumstance. It was not a formal "filing" of a legal document. It was Pelosi's personal copy. She could have sold it on EBay if she wanted to.

Any guesses on what the Department of Justice will determine? Should Nancy Pelosi face charges of some kind?

I don't want to waste my tax money on her. Can anyone name anything she's actually helped our country out with? For as long as I can remember she's been a thorn in the United States side. I don't agree with her one bit, but I also think it's stupid to throw her in prison over her opinion, and ripping up pieces of paper.

Nancy Pelosi may have committed a violation of 18 U.S.C. § 2071, Section 2071 (a) when she ripped up President Trump’s State of the Union address
This violation is punishable by up to three years in prison.

Did you miss the part in the very same article you cited where the law professor said:
"Her copy of the State of the Union address is not a government record or government property at all," Douglas Cox, professor at City University of New York School of Law, told PolitiFact at the time. "It is personal property."
