When you link/pair your Trezor to Metamask, it links to a different Ethereum address than the primary account you use when you first setup Metamask.
The Trezor linked address will require the hardware wallet to sign transactions.
The primary account will not require hardware to sign transactions.
If you move all the assets to hardware controlled address, then you will have the protection of hardware signed transactions.
In your friends case, if a hacker already has the seed phrase to the primary account, they may have it set up to instantly retrieve any Ethereum that is transferred to that address. Since you need Ether to move tokens from the old address to the Trezor controlled address, it is possible that it may be stolen as soon as you put any Ethereum in that address. So, practically it would not be a good idea to attempt to move those tokens, given that you may lose whatever Ether you send to that address to pay for transactions fees.
