If You want to prevent user to delete app, try using some of application for locking. Those application ask for code in order to access to forbidden app or to settings. Best way, in my opinion, to restrict use of device.

You can't. But in order to delete app, you need to deactivate active admin. And your admin can receive this event(i.e. deactivation) and lock the phone with password. That's the only usage pattern.
