BREAKING: The British Government is currently considering new legislation to remove Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor from the Line of Succession, according to BBC News.
The last time someone was removed from the Line of Succession was the former King Edward VIII in 1936.

Abdicating the throne does remove you from the Line of Succession.
The next in line gets the throne, and so on down the line if whoever is sitting on the throne has no heir.
In the case of George V - Edward VIII - George VI - Elisabeth II; Ed' got the throne from George V, Ed' gave up the throne to marry Miss Simpson, Albert picked up and became George VI.
Had Edward changed his mind, he wouldn't have been able to get the throne back, even at the death of his brother. His brother having an heir in Elisabeth.

Kudos to her indeed.
However, considering this is the UK, we are at a place in time where one might end up wondering "will she get disciplined for it".
