How do you find and replace in GD Script?

Use the String.find() and String.replace() methods for this purpose. To only check whether a substring is present in a string, use the in operator (e.g. if "hello" in "hello world" will evaluate to true).

Just in-case you mean how to find and replace text in in Godot’s built in text editor:
Ctrl-R - Replace in current file
Ctrl-Shift-F → Replace… - Replace in multiple files

Why they didn’t follow the convention?

CTRL+F and CTRL+H for replace

Is that configurable?

Yes.
While editing a project, in the top left corner of the Godot Editor, go to:
Editor → Editor Settings → Shortcuts

You can click on “Listening for input…” and do ctrl+R to show the binding.
