If the tags always start with hash marks then you can find "\s+#" and replace with " #". Basically you're just replacing whatever white space appears before each # with a single space.
For sorting you can look at Sort Lines... on the Edit menu. Sort with a pattern like "#.+" with Entire Match selected. That will sort by the tags on each line. Make sure that each paragraph is actually a single line. If you have stray returns in the text then those lines are going to be broken up. As always, particularly with operations like global search replaces and sorting, make sure you work on a copy of your data.
