1) If Haven is destroyed, it will just be rebuilt in the future. Same with Beacon, with the only difference that Beacon is infested with Grimm. And Beacon is only infested with Grimm because Salem still hasn't taken the Relic of Choice from it.

And no, "destroying Mistral too" would just be a terrible idea. Secrecy is part of her forte, destryoing a whole kingdom would ring alarm bells in everyone's minds and make getting the other Relics much harder.

2) Salem gives no damn about the Huntsmen or the Academies. She gives a damn only about the Relics that she could well use to change the world, destroying the Academies and much more.

Destroying Haven when there's nothing there, especially not the Relic, would just be a waste of time compared to going after the Relics, not to mention that it would shock people and just make them improve the security in the other Academies. No need to make her job harder for no reason.

3) Some of the very Huntsmen in those Academies, can well be potential future pawns. And in fact, that's what Leo was, a pawn within Haven Academy.
