Here's the link for the implication of possible Bumblebee. It's right at the beginning of a 2013 pre-show livestream, which took place the same day that the first episode of Volume 1 premiered online. In the video, Arryn and Miles have the following exchange, with Arryn seeming like she doesn't realize that the stream can still hear her despite her lowering her voice:

Arryn: And can I mention… that my uh… my character and another character (mumble mumble, possibly sounds like “are in a lesbian relationship”)?

Miles: No, absolutely not.

The deleted cherry stem animation is talked about in the Volume 2 directors commentary. We have about half of the commentary written down, and we honestly should pick back up on writing down the commentaries.

96. Gray: We never, we never put in the cherry stone.

97. Kerry: But it, yeah.

98. Miles: Oh, do you wanna talk about that, Gray?

99. Gray: Yeah, we were right on the fence of, like, how... What, how tongue-in-cheek we wanted to get with the, the humor {Miles: Hah, hah, tongue-in-cheek.} in RWBY. (Miles laughs slightly.) Where, uh, like one shot later, {Kerry: What tongue touches cheek?} she catches the cherry right here. Uh, yeah, she'd actually be holding a cherry stem {Miles: Yeah we...} with a knot in it.

100. Miles: ...we, we posed her hand exactly that way so we could add it in-comp if we wanted to.

101. Gray: Yeah, we just didn't have the...

102. Miles: I think, I think it was like 50 percent like "Ehh" and 50 percent like "Eh, we don't have the time".

They talk about it being for humor, but Kerry makes a French kissing joke.
