There is a saved search which has been orphaned.

When I attempted to reassign it to another user like admin or nobody, it didn't let me and showed the below warning message.

You need to remove the report from the embedded dashboard (or convert it to inline in that dashboard), change the report owner, then re-add it to the dashboard.
