I.E. they could transfer it to Bill Gates for one dollar, then donate the dollar back into the Foundation.

This is a little off-topic, but I'm curious as to what you mean by
that. In what sense could they sell the foundation? They could sell
all the assets, but the proceeds would still need to be spent on
something which furthers the stated goals of the foundation, they
certainly couldn't pocket the cash.
