How could I remove iOS Simulator without uninstall Xcode?

Answer 1

What you're going to want to do is open the iOS Simulator you want to uninstall and go to the menu in the top left and follow the path iOS Simulator > Reset Content and Settings...

This'll delete all contents on the iOS Simulator. This won't uninstall it, but it usually will fix it.

If your problem persists go to ~/Library/Application Support/iPhone Simulator and delete whatever version you want to delete. I'm not 100% sure it'll reinstall next time you debug but it's worth a shot. If it does manage to slip away though, you'll have to reinstall Xcode.
