How to return the texts in a GUI.Box after they got modified by the Box?

Unfortunately there's no straight forward method to get that information. However with a few tricks it's possible:

 GUIContent singleLine = new GUIContent("H");
 GUIContent doubleLine = new GUIContent("H\nH");
 int GetLineCount(Rect aRect, GUIContent aText, GUIStyle aStyle)
 {
     float lineHeight = (aStyle.CalcHeight(doubleLine, 1000) - aStyle.CalcHeight(singleLine, 1000));
     Vector2 pos = aStyle.GetCursorPixelPosition(aRect, aText, aText.text.Length) - aStyle.GetCursorPixelPosition(aRect, aText, 0);
     return (int)(pos.y / lineHeight)+1;
 }

T$$anonymous$$s method will calculate the line count in an GUI control. Keep in mind that empty lines will count as well. If you have a newline character at the end it will count as another line.

You have to pass the same position Rect as you used for your control as well as the same GUIContent. The last parameter is the used style. If you didn't use a custom style, you have to pass the default style for that control as string.

Example:

 Rect R = new Rect(20, 20, Screen.width - 40, Screen.height - 40); 
 GUI.Box(R, Text); // default style "box"
 int lineCount = GetLineCount(R, new GUIContent(Text), "box");

T$$anonymous$$s will return the actual line count taking wordwrap of the used style into account.

edit
However getting the line count won't probably help since you still don't know where a new line starts. For t$$anonymous$$s you can use a helper like t$$anonymous$$s:

 string[] SplitAtWordWrap(Rect aRect, string aText, GUIStyle aStyle)
 {
     var lines = new List<int>();
     var content = new GUIContent(aText);
     float old = aStyle.GetCursorPixelPosition(aRect, content, 0).y;
     for (int i = 1; i < aText.Length; i++)
     {
         float y = aStyle.GetCursorPixelPosition(aRect, content, i).y;
         if (y > old)
         {
             old = y;
             lines.Add(i);
         }
     }
     if (lines.Count == 0)
         return new string[]{aText};

     string[] result = new string[lines.Count+1];
     result[0] = aText.Substring(0,lines[0]).Replace("\n","");
     for(int i = 0; i < lines.Count; i++)
     {
         if (i < lines.Count-1)
             result[i + 1] = aText.Substring(lines[i], lines[i + 1] - lines[i]).Replace("\n", "");
         else
             result[i + 1] = aText.Substring(lines[i]).Replace("\n", "");
     }
     return result;
 }

T$$anonymous$$s method will "scan" for new lines and split the string at those positions. It will remove all "old" new line characters. Keep in mind that t$$anonymous$$s need to be executed inside OnGUI. However calling it every OnGUI call would produce a huge amount of garbage and wouldn't be very fast, so consider doing t$$anonymous$$s only once or when needed.

For the generic List you need of course t$$anonymous$$s line on top:

 using System.Collections.Generic;

Copied the example from the comments below ;)

 string someText = "Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipisicing elit, sed do eiusmod tempor incididunt ut labore et dolore magna aliqua.\n";
 bool executed = false;
 GUIStyle boxStyle;
 
 void OnGUI()
 {
     if(!executed)
     {
         executed = true; // do it only once
         boxStyle = new GUIStyle("box");
         boxStyle.wordWrap = true;   // set the style to word wrap
         
         var res = "";
         Rect r = new Rect(0, 0, 100, 200);
         foreach (var line in SplitAtWordWrap(r, someText, boxStyle).Reverse())
         {
             res += line + "\n";
         }
         someText = res;
     }
     GUI.Box(new Rect(0, 0, 100, 200), someText, boxStyle);
 }
