Filtering seems to be like restricting things out of a group of things, while sorting is keeping the group of things the same but changing the ordering. Wondering if there's a word that can classify this "change of a grouping in some fashion

A sieve is
a device with meshes or perforations through which finer particles of
a mixture (as of ashes, flour, or sand) of various sizes may be passed
to separate them from coarser ones
To sieve (the verb form) is to perform this operation, which sorts and filters at the same time.

Winnowing has a similar meaning (and origin) but it's more obscure. It has the advantage of not also being a name for a common item that might confuse people.

These operations (along with others, such as grouping) come under the Data menu in Microsoft Excel. So I would suggest data analysis or data management. Or, if you really need a single word, analysis:
Detailed examination of the elements or structure of something.
