Removing a shield counter in this way isn't the same as regenerating a creature.

If the target is illegal as Boon of Safety attempts to resolve, it will be removed from the stack and its controller will not scry.

“Shield” is not an ability that creatures have and shield counters are not keyword counters. If a creature with a shield counter loses its abilities, the shield counter will still protect it as normal.

A creature with a shield counter on it may still be destroyed by state-based actions if it has damage marked on it equal to its toughness or has been dealt unpreventable damage by a source with deathtouch.
