I am undocumented. Can my employer threaten to report me to ICE?

No. If your employer threatens to report your immigration status (or suspected immigration status) as a means of scaring you, this is considered criminal extortion.[3492] Contact an attorney with experience in immigration and/or employment law immediately. For a list of referrals see Appendix A, PG. 1134.
