So I just conquered some machine worlds, and now I want to upgrade some of my buildings there, which requires a planetary administration. It doesn't exist any because of an administrative array being there. How can I create a planetary administration and perhaps getting rid of the old administrative array from the defeated machine empire?
How to replace administrative array with planetary administration?

You can't. 2.2.4 is bugged.
This is a gamebreaking bug and I had to stop playing the new beta patch. Conquered planets are useless as you can't switch the Capital Building.
If anyone made a mod to fix this, I would be glad.

I just destroyed the machine building after a month the organic variant appeared ( conquered machine fallen empire )
The only way i found to change capital is by editing the save.Open save game file with winrar or 7z.Ctrl+f to find the name of the planet and now you can edit the planet capital.
"building_capital" to "building_hive_capital" or visa versa
"building_capital" to "building_hive_capital" or visa versa
If any of extermination options is available for your empire, ultimately you could decolonize that worlds and recolonize after.
It's not 2.2.4. It's in the live 2.2.3 and still not fixed in 2.2.4. One of the lovely NEW bugs they introduced.
So far the only way forums have found to deal with it is to re-settle the populations off the planet, which de-colonizes it, and then re-settle it with a colony ship.

You should also be able to destroy it and wait a month, to have it replaced by a reassembled colony ship building.
This is the only way I could figure out to make captured Fallen Empire worlds functional.

The FE fortress buildings also stay around and provide jobs your pops can't work.

Yeah, same with the Shroud building the spiritualist FEs have. There are several things to demolish these days, sadly.
You can't destroy most invalid building. You get stuck with a useless planet.
Just now, I simply resettled all pops from one of those worlds and it instantly become not colonized 
It appear that Glavius made a Workaround to fix this gamebreaking bug. I will test it.
Glavius saving us once again.

FYI: Others have posted a way you can do it without the mod ... then again I hear the mod is so good that the Stellaris team should just pay Glavius to incorporate it into the base build of the game ...
Hmm ... I'm not running the beta so maybe that's why destroying the invalid building works for me???
I just resettle everyone and then re-colonize planet but if simply resettling to the point of collapse and then waiting a month works, that's fine too. It's not ideal but you can still play your game...
