  Not the OP, but Brian McCall J.D was the Associate Dean of Academic Affairs at a law school in Oklahoma. He had to resign because of a book he wrote on Catholicism, even though his track record was impeccable by any standard.

    He had to resign because he believes that women are not equal to men in society. For example: “Women must veil their form to obscure its contours out of charity towards men...To know that women in pants have this effect on men and to wear them is thus a sin against charity as well as modesty.” He calls a woman’s leaving the home to work “another false promise of the devil come to pass.” So no he did not resign because of a book he wrote on Catholicism, rather the beliefs he espoused in that book made his job untenable. How could any female student be judged fairly by an administrator who doesn't feel like they are meant to be in the workplace, or even wear pants?

  The Christakises, Bret Weinstein and his wife Heather Heying, James Damore, and Lindsey Shepherd (actually not sure if she was pushed out; she had the good sense to record her abuse which may have ultimately protected her). These are a few of the more egregious examples off the top of my head. EDIT: Brandan Eich and Lawrence Summers popped into my head as well.
