Pull the batteries out of your FOBs. for a few days to determine if it still persists. If it does still persist then someone else (close proximity) has the same FOB code as you.
I wasn't aware you had remote start on this vehicle? My wiring diagram didn't show it? The database I use, isn't the best, it's what I could afford. Pulling the starter relay should stop it, maybe it won't start after your through with vehicle for the day. If no remote start, I'd have to check ignition switch and wiring. good luck
Do you have OnStar? You can remote start some vehicles with the OnStar app. Did someone hack your app?
