STS is very specific in stating that this is both microwave and dishwasher safe. http://www.seatosummit.com/products/display/71

Yes, it's completely safe for microwave use. Silicone has a safe temp rating of 428F/220C and your usage will never be greater than 212F/100C. The Nylon lip has a temperature rating of anywhere from 390F/199C to 490F/254C depending on the type of nylon, but the ring would be insulated by the silicone, so it's not even an issue.

I would say no. This item can handle hot liquids, but in the microwave it would most likely melt.
