With Chief's Manipulate power when a char takes a action is going to push can he use more then one Manipulate token to try to avoid that push like remove a token fail the roll then remove another one to try again ?

Always quote the power using the Player's Guide when asking a question, please.
This is from the PG:

#036 Chief
When removing Manipulate tokens, Probability Control can be used on the d6 roll. The Chief is the character that needs to be targeted for this line of fire. If the d6 roll is a 1-2, and The Chief has more Manipulate tokens on his card, he may continue to use Manipulate until he has no more tokens. If a force has more than one Chief, each can use this power at the beginning of the turn. Only one action for the action pool can be acquired this way, but each Chief can roll to try to place a Manipulate token.
When The Chief uses Manipulate to add a token to his card it replaces all other effects of the Leadership roll (e.g., if The Chief was equipped with Tactics, he would choose between a Manipulate token or 2 actions with a successful Leadership roll).
All references to “The Chief” in this figure’s game effects refer to “Chief.”
Please quote the effect in question. Not only does it help reduce confusion, but a reread can often answer the question.
Manipulate: The Chief can use Leadership. If Leadership would allow you to add an action to your action total for the turn, you can instead put a Manipulate token on the Chief's character card if there are two or fewer Manipulate tokens on the card. When another friendly character would take pushing damage, you can remove a Manipulate token from the Chief's character card and roll a d6; on a result of 3-6, the character ignores the pushing damage.
Since a successful roll is required to add an additional action to the turn, yes, you need to successfully roll Leadership to add a Manipulate token.
