(1) The said method of ghusl is correct.
(2) The use of soap is not necessary, you may also have ghusl without soap.
(3) It is not necessary three times, if water reaches over the whole body once then it is enough but it is mandatory that no part of the body is left dry; hence it is sunnah and mustahab to pour water thrice.
(4) According to preferable saying the used water is pure hence if used water of body or the foam of soap falls in the bucket then the water of the bucket shall not become impure provided no impurity is mixed with the used water.
