So I left my Nintendo user account on it, I realized they could delete my cloud backups within that switch so is there a way to remove that account remotely?

Eh, cloud backup means the save data is stored on Nintendo's server.
Yes, there are still save data and profile data on that Switch, but your cloud backup is still safe on the "cloud".
You still need to contact them to remove your account, of course. And be sure to change primary console status.
If you have some games that do not have cloud save support like Pokemon, Splatoon, and the special case of Animal Crossing, then you gonna need to get that Switch back to transfer.

IIRC that would mostly affect their ability to access the eShop, not sure about cloud save data function.
