Very important question, after I get the citizenship and passport is with me. If divorce just a few days after that, it can hurt my citizenship?
If your citizenship was based on marriage, divorce immediately that after can be a big problem. A divorce very soon after becoming a citizen probably means the divorce filing happened before citizenship was granted, and that is material information which should have been disclosed during the marriage-based naturalization process. The failure to disclose that information could result in revocation of citizenship in the future.

Are you a citizen yet? Is/Was your citizenship application marriage-based? Have you already filed for divorce?
The failure to disclose that information could result in revocation of citizenship in the future.
If such revocation does happen, will the person in question go back to live as a PR who can file for citizenship using 5 year rule
or 3 year with another bona fide marriage or will get deported

Deported, because it was the applicant's fault for withholding material information, not a USCIS mistake to grant citizenship to an ineligible person.
