There was a bug related to deleting an account and getting stuck in un-editable scheduled transactions, but this has been fixed. The bug described here seems serious enough (if you're stuck in a situation where you can't even delete the transaction). Can you open a bug, and show us exactly how to reproduce the problem (or better yet, attach a pruned down version of your gnucash file, but I don't know if there's a way to anonymize/prune down your gnucash file).

I seem to recall that there was a time in the early days of releases 2.4.x
or 2.2.x when GnuCash generated some scheduled transactions for me that
were similarly un-repairable.  I don't remember the details, but I think
that I needed to edit the XML data file with a special text editor that
could work with files larger than 2 gig, which would mean it was before I
had a 64 bit text editor.

Usually the procedure Actions > Check and Repair> All Transactions will fix
most problems, so try that first.  The developers may have some other
suggestions as well, since it is easy to break XML.  If you are daring and
keep back-ups rigorously it should be possible to find the text of the bad
SX and hopefully either fix the misplaced comma or whatever it is, or
delete the entire SX, taking care to retain the XML tag structure.
Somewhere in the developer portion of the GnuCash website there is a
definition of the XML file structure.

Good luck.
