Excommunication is about church rules. The afterlife has a place for all and growth to those so oriented.

No, you will only burn in hell if you fail to accept Jesus as your personal savior, as stated in John 3:16. Excommunication is a human 'rule' that has no relevance in heaven or hell.

Not necessarily. Only God knows who will be in Heaven. We don't get to know until judgment day. So it's sort of pointless to even wonder about it.
Excommunications are rare in the U.S. these days. Are you asking because you or someone you know has been excommunicated? I'd be interested to learn the details of that.

Excommunicated from what? A church lodge?
A church building?
A group of " big shots" in a church council?
The only excommunication one should fear is to be "ex-communicated" from the Presence of God.
Everyone else can say what they want...they don't count.
Only what God's Word says counts.
No church saved you and no church can condemn you with their little "church policies, politics and regulations"
God is in His Word. He's not in a "church" UNLESS that "church" is totally lined up with His Word.
Find me a church that's TOTALLY in line with His Word and teachings...
You're better off away from them crumbling walls...

Excommunication was invented by the Catholic Church so as to control people.

I don't believe it matters if you excommunicated or not. what matters is if you sin and then repent for it after . I believe excommunication is a man made rule. What matters is if you follow God's rules and believe in him.

No, you are only excommunicated by the church not God.

Read Jeremiah 7:30, 31 and you tell me if a loving God would ever do such a thing to anyone.

No because there is no hell in the bible, so therefor you can not be sent there. Study and learn and stop being afraid of things that do not exist.

There is no Hell, this is only a lie to make people more compliant to the church out of fear.
