There is almost no chance that Apple is trying to do what you say (get Judge Cote removed from the case). It's a very difficult thing to do and very rarely actually happens. However, what it might do is cause the appeals court to give her a bit less due deference when looking at the case.
Yes, I know that calling me an "Apple fanboi" lets you ignore the actual issues in the case and dismiss them out of hand (it's called ad homimem, by the way. A time honored rhetorical device). Yet, the issues remain. We will see what the appeals court has to say.
