Time will tell. They are pretty hardy, just keep the environment as stable as possible to give it the best chance.

Try and get it some protection to heal. In a cave or something that won’t allow the fish to continue bothering it.

Do you have a pic? It may just be shedding.

It looks like Sinularia dura, cabbage coral. Can you get another small rock to help lift it up off the sand a bit more? That should help and so will making sure it has enough flow to help prevent sand from settling on it. You may have to keep your turkey baster handy and blow the sand off with that from time to time.
