This is more like ideas about what the Force does rather than how it does it, but it's just my 2 cents:

When Force-users TK objects, they're applying a wide-area force to the object's molecules. Levitation is TK'ing the ground.

Sith-lightning means applying applying force on a subatomic scale to electrons (manipulating/projecting them).

Mind-tricks involve applying force to electrons in such a way as to project radio-waves at people's heads to make them hear stuff (Voice to Skull Device, the Frey Effect, the Electrophonic Effect) and do as you command due to hypnotic effects of certain EM emissions (like conspiracy theorist government mind control). I know this is iffy.

Maybe FTL communication is due to applying force to particles in hyperspace (according to Dr Saxton's ideas on hyperspace as normal space viewed from FTL).
Robert Gilruth to Max Faget on the Apollo program: “Max, we’re going to go back there one day, and when we do, they’re going to find out how tough it is.”
