I was looking into this for the same reasons and found that the approval records are stored in Dataverse tables. Go to Power Apps > Dataverse > Tables and look for Approval, Approval Request, and Approval Response. You can remove records by editing the table data in Excel under Data > Edit in Excel. If you haven't done this before you may be prompted to install the Excel add-in that connects to the Dataverse tables. After the records are removed from there, they no longer appear in the Teams Approvals app.
