So sorry, but we are lay people. You need to get a lawyer. A lawyer will be the only person who can look at everything and figure it all out.
You have written us before regarding this complicated legal and familial family.
We on this Forum cannot help you and your story makes no sense whatsoever.

If guardianship was granted to your Uncles, then the judge (who has no personal interest in the outcome) thought it was the best decision. FYI no one can take her name off the property title without her consent. The guardians now will decide what to do with the property: perhaps sell it to pay for her future care. If she created a legal Will, then when she passes the Executor of the Will will distribute the assets as they are stated in it. If she promised you something verbally, but it's not in the Will, then it won't happen. If she doesn't have any assets left because they were used to pay for her care, then it won't matter what's in the Will if there's nothing left to distribute.
If your Grandma now has dementia then what she is telling you is probably not accurate. Paranoia is a feature of dementia so she might be having delusions of people taking advantage of her.
It seems like the Uncles felt you were not an appropriate caregiver for her and that's why they pursued guardianship. Or, her cognitive state is bad enough that she can no longer legally assign a PoA. Without a PoA her family can't help her get the appropriate care and also get her to pay for it.
We can't take sides with you, we only know one side of this story. I wish you peace in your heart as you go through this changeover.
