Press M/Menu on the Select Archive Items screen and select Remove Item.
That will remove the item that is currently selected.

As far as I know MythArchive uses the same method to detect if a cut
list is available as the frontend does. It uses the flag in the
ProgramInfo class. I did fix a bug where mytharchive wasn't seeing that
a new cut list was available after an item had been added to the archive
list so if you are not using the current svn updating may fix it. If
not, assuming the .nuv is an mpeg file, you could try running
mythtranscode on the file manually to remove the cut list and then add
the resulting file as a regular file to mytharchive.
