Does gate of infinity count as movement for dropping the relic? Didn't see it in the rulebook.

It's not movement per se, but you do count as moving and the models are likely displaced by more than 6". I doubt there's a clear answer, you'll just have to houserule it. For the purposes of balancing the mission, I think you have to consider it as movement and thus it forces you to drop the relic.

GOI removes your squad from table to be able to deepstrike in the first place. So, you drop the relic this very moment regardless of weather it's counted as movement or not.

^This.
In fact, any power/ability/other that removes the squad from the tabletop/board would make you drop the relic, barring embarking upon a transport.

You can find that in the mission rules for the relic (I've paraphrased, of course), and in GoI, it tells you you are removed from the board.
