How can I cancel the tax I just did?

You cannot stop or cancel a tax return you just e-filed.  Now you will have to wait to see if it is rejected or accepted by the IRS. If it is rejected, then you can make changes and corrections on it and then re-submit it. But if the IRS accepts it, you have to WAIT until it has been fully processed and you have received your refund. Meanwhile do NOT make any changes to it. If you need to amend it, you have to be able to work from it exactly the way it was when sent the first time to the IRS. For now, sit tight and see what the IRS does with your return.

Banking information for refund is wrong
If you entered incorrect banking information for your refund, you can change it if your return is rejected.  If it is accepted, however, it is too late to change it.  The bank will reject the refund and send it back to the IRS.  Then the IRS will issue a paper check and mail it to the address you put on your tax return.  Expect a delay of at least a couple of weeks to receive your refund.
Here is what the IRS says about entering incorrect banking information
