Australia certainly was involved in the Russian/Trump story, thus the calls for investigations. Actual Impeachment though is something new. I do not believe Nancy Pelosi is only going after Trump. The story around Joe Biden and his son Hunter is too controversial for the mud to simply slide off.
From the Guardian,
"Donald Trump called Scott Morrison to ask for help in an investigation aimed at discrediting the Mueller inquiry, and Morrison agreed to assist.
The call, first reported by the New York Times but confirmed by the Australian government, happened shortly before the Australian prime minister flew to the US to visit Trump last week. White House sources also confirmed the report, the Australian ABC reported.
According to two officials with knowledge of the call, Trump asked Morrison to help the US attorney general, William Barr, find evidence for a review into the Mueller inquiry."

But Why?
And who does the impeachment stuff benefit in reality?

The Democrats want to know whether Trump pressured Ukraine to investigate Democratic presidential candidate and former Vice President Joe Biden. But Trump claims the real issue is Biden and his son Hunter Biden and what they did in Ukraine a few years ago.
"The one who's got the problem is Biden," Trump told reporters on Monday at the United Nations.
"Biden did what they would like to have me do, except one problem: I didn't do it. What Biden did is a disgrace. What his son did is a disgrace."
