If Nintendo wanted to control GF they can, as they already have a controlling share, that's the thing. Nintendo has sole ownership of Pokemon company (GF may have a bit of share too, I don't believe so though), Pokemon Company and Nintendo each own I believe 33% of GF. Nintendo therefore owns a majority of GF. But GF has never made a good/successful game outside of Pokemon, and until they do Nintendo is gonna let things happen. It's not worth it to try and cause a problem because GF made a mediocre PS4 download game. 

I'm fairly sure it's the other way around: The Pokemon Company is majority-owned by Nintendo, because it owns 1/3 outright, another 1/3 through Creatures, Inc, and Game Freak owns the final 1/3.

It's a bit of both. Nintendo owns Creatures as well, giving them a controlling ownership of Pokemon with about 65% (apparently Funimation is in on about 2%). Nintendo then by extension owns about 54% of Game Freak from what I'm seeing in a quick Google. That really good IGN article on the Pokemon Company specified but I can't find that right now for some reason.
