You can't get nail cancer, nails are not cells, they are dead material.
Obviously you can get skin cancer anywhere in your skin, so it's possible to get cancer underneath the nail but I've never heard of this.
Getting your nails buffed can't cause cancer, it's just a rubbing action.

No, but excessive buffing can bruise your nail bed underneath and it can hurt really bad.
