I prefer the argument as I wrote it in the comments, since the brevity there conveys the structure of the proof most clearly.  But since the OP requests it, below is a very detailed version (which might obscure the simplicity of the main idea due to its length).

Before explaining the "modern" cohomological proof more fully, note that the result is false in positive characteristic, even over algebraically closed fields. For example, following Tits, for any $n > 1$ and any algebraically closed field $K$ of characteristic $p > 0$, the $K$-group $G = {\rm{SL}}_n(W_2(K))$ (rigorous meaning is clear, I hope) has the evident maximal reductive quotient ${\rm{SL}}_n$ but admits *no* "Levi factor". This is proved by a root group analysis resting on the fact that the natural quotient map $W_2 \rightarrow {\mathbf{G}}_a$ admits no homomorphic section; the same argument works with ${\rm{SL}}_n$ replaced by any nontrivial connected semisimple $\mathbf{Z}/(p^2)$-group.

Now back to (possibly disconnected) linear algebraic groups $G$ over a field $K$ of characteristic 0, with unipotent radical $U = R_u(G) = R_u(G^0)$ (defined over $K$, since $K$ is perfect). We shall prove:

${\mathbf{Theorem}.}$ There exist closed $K$-subgroups $M \subset G$ such that $M \ltimes U \rightarrow G$ is an isomorphism, and all such $M$ are $U(K)$-conjugate to each other.
(Obviously it is the same to assert $G(K)$-conjugacy rather than $U(K)$-conjugacy.) 
Equivalently, homomorphic sections to the quotient map $G \rightarrow G/U$ exist and are all $U(K)$-conjugate to each other.  

In the argument below, we'll highlight exactly where the characteristic 0 hypothesis (rather than just perfectness) is used.

Step 1: The case $U = 1$ is trivial, so we may assume $U \ne 1$ and proceed by induction on $\dim U$.  As for any smooth connected unipotent group over a perfect field, $U$ admits a "characteristic" composition series $1 = U_0 \subset U_1 \subset \dots \subset U_m = U$ with each $U_i/U_{i-1}$ a nonzero vector group (i.e., a power of $\mathbf{G}_a$).  Here, by "characteristic" I mean that each $U_i$ is stable under the automorphism functor of $U$, and so each is normal in $G$. [In characteristic 0 we can use the derived series of $U$, since a commutative unipotent group in characteristic 0 is a vector group. Over perfect fields of positive characteristic we can use the derived series followed by $p$-power filtrations within those steps since a $p$-torsion commutative smooth connected unipotent group over a perfect field of characteristic $p > 0$ is a vector group.]

Step 2: Suppose for a moment that the case when $U$ is a vector group is settled, so in particular the cases with $m = 1$ are settled and we can suppose $m > 1$. We'll deduce the general case.  The unipotent radical of $G' = G/U_{m-1}$ is the vector group $U/U_{m-1}$, so (by our temporary hypothesis that the case "$U$ is a vector group" is settled) the $K$-group $G'$ admits a Levi factor $M'$. The preimage $H$ of $M'$ under $G \twoheadrightarrow G'$ has unipotent radical $U_{m-1}$ of smaller dimension than $U$ and has maximal reductive quotient $M'$ (that maps isomorphically onto $G/U$). The induction on the dimension of the unipotent radical provides a Levi factor $M$ of $H$ unique up to $U_{m-1}(K)$-conjugacy, and this is clearly a Levi factor of $G$.  So we get the existence for $G$, and uniqueness up to $U_{m-1}(K)$-conjugacy for those Levi factors which map isomorphically onto a common Levi factor $M'$ of $G'$ (as all such are Levi factors of the preimage $H$ in $G$ of such an $M'$).

If $M$ is any Levi factor of $G$ (so $M \cap U = 1$) then $M \cap U_{m-1} = 1$ and clearly $M$ maps isomorphically onto a Levi factor of $G'$.  But any two Levi factors of $G'$ are  related through conjugacy by $(U/U_{m-1})(K) = U(K)/U_{m-1}(K)$ (equality since ${\rm{H}}^1(K,U_{m-1}) = 1$, as $U_{m-1}$ is filtered by vector groups over $K$). Thus, to establish the desired $U(K)$-conjugacy result in $G$ we may apply a preliminary $U(K)$-conjugation to reduce to considering those Levi factors of $G$ which have the same image in $G'$, so these are Levi factors in an $H$ as considered above.  We have seen that such $K$-subgroups of $G$ are $U_{m-1}(K)$-conjugate, so we'd be done.  

Step 3: Now we may assume that $U = V = \mathbf{G}_a^n$ is a vector group over $K$. Let $G' = G/V$, so $(G')^0$ is reductive.  Since $V$ is commutative, the conjugation action of $G$ on its normal subgroup $V$ factors through an action by $G'$ on $V$.  We will reduce our problem to the vanishing of some higher Hochschild cohomology groups for $G'$ with coefficients in the commutative group functor $V$ equipped with its $G'$-action.

Consider the quotient map $G \twoheadrightarrow G'$.  This is a $V$-torsor for the etale topology on $G'$ (since $V$ is smooth), so the isomorphism class of this torsor corresponds to a class in the etale cohomology group ${\rm{H}}^1(G',V)$.  But since $V$ is a vector group, this is the etale cohomology of the quasi-coherent sheaf on $G'$ associated to a vector bundle. On any scheme, the etale cohomology of a quasi-coherent sheaf coincides with the Zariski cohomology (due to descent theory arguments).  But on an *affine* scheme the higher Zariski cohomology of quasi-coherent sheaves vanishes, so the etale cohomology group ${\rm{H}}^1(G',V)$ vanishes.  In other words, for the short exact sequence
$$1 \rightarrow V \rightarrow G \stackrel{f}{\rightarrow} G' \rightarrow 1$$
there exists a section $s$ to $f$ (as a map of $K$-schemes, not necessarily a homomorphic section).  We can arrange $s(1)=1$ via $G(K)$-translation, so $G$ as a pointed $K$-scheme equipped with an inclusion from $V$ and a surjection onto $G'$ can be identified with $V \times G'$ equipped with a $K$-group structure making it fit into an exact sequence as above and making the resulting $G'$-action on $V$ be the one that we introduced above.

Arguing exactly as for extensions in ordinary group theory (for which set-theoretic splittings always exist), the set of such $K$-group structures on $V \times G'$ is identified with the set ${\rm{Z}}^2(G',V)$ of "algebraic" 2-cocycles on $G'$ valued in $V$ (equipped with its $G'$-action!).  This cocycle is a 2-coboundary (i.e., in the image ${\rm{B}}^2(G',V)$ of the group of "algebraic" 1-cochains ${\rm{C}}^1(G',V)$ under the usual differential) if and only if the resulting short exact sequence of $K$-groups splits as a semidirect product, which is to say that the obstruction to the existence of a Levi subgroup is a class in the Hochschild cohomology group ${\rm{H}}^2(G',V)$.  Moreover, if the obstruction vanishes then the set of such splittings (i.e., the set of Levi $K$-subgroups) up to $V(K)$-conjugation is a principal homogeneous space under the Hochschild cohomology group ${\rm{H}}^1(G',V)$.

We have shown that the existence of a Levi $K$-subgroup is reduced to the vanishing of the Hochschild cohomology group ${\rm{H}}^2(G',V)$, and the uniqueness up to $V(K)$-conjugacy is reduced to the vanishing of the Hochschild cohomology group ${\rm{H}}^1(G',V)$. Note that we *still* haven't used that char($K$)=0, only that $K$ is perfect.  (We also haven't yet done anything serious, just basic formalism.)

Step 4: Now it suffices to prove that the Hochschild cohomology groups ${\rm{H}}^i(G',V)$ vanish for all $i > 0$ and any action on the $K$-group $V = \mathbf{G}_a^n$ by a smooth linear algebraic group $G'$ whose identity component is reductive. For this we will finally use that $K$ has characteristic 0.  

The first key point is to prove that the $G'$-action on $V$ is necessarily *linear* (which can certainly fail in positive characteristic).  To see this, we just have to check that the endomorphism functor of $\mathbf{G}_a^n$ is represented by the functor ${\rm{Mat}}_n$ of $n \times n$ matrices (so its automorphism functor is represented by ${\rm{GL}}_n$, recovering also the uniqueness of the linear structure on vector groups in characteristic 0).  This immediately reduces to the case $n = 1$, which is the obvious statement that an "additive polynomial" over a $\mathbf{Q}$-algebra is precisely a scalar  multiple of $x$. Note in particular that $V^{G'}$ is a linear subspace of $V$.

Our problem is now one in the category of algebraic linear representations of a smooth linear algebraic group $G'$ with reductive identity component.  Ignoring the reductivity property for a moment, let's consider the category of all algebraic linear representations of $G'$ (by which I mean algebraic linear actions on vector spaces of possibly infinite dimension, exhausted by $G'$-stable algebraic finite-dimensional subrepresentations).  This category has enough injectives, and by a suitable "induction" construction inspired by the case of ordinary groups we see that the Hochschild cohomology $\delta$-functor ${\rm{H}}^{\bullet}(G',\cdot)$ on this category is erasable and thus is the derived functor of the functor $W \rightsquigarrow W^{G'}$ of $G'$-invariants.  (This is valid without restriction on the characteristic.) Thus, our vanishing assertion when $(G')^0$ is reductive (and ${\rm{char}}(K)=0$) is *equivalent* to the (right-)exactness of the formation of $G'$-invariants, which in turn suffices to be checked for finite-dimensional representations.

The formation of the Hochschild cohomology groups commutes with extension of the ground field, so we can assume $K$ is algebraically closed.  Thus, $G'$ has a finite composition series whose successive quotients are of 3 types: finite constant, split torus, or connected semisimple. To check that the functor $W \rightsquigarrow W^{G'}$ on finite-dimensional algebraic representations is right-exact, we thereby reduce to each of those 3 basic cases separately.  The case of split tori is obvious by consideration of gradings, and the case of finite constant groups is obvious by averaging (since we're in characteristic 0).  There remains the case of connected semisimple groups over a field $K$ of characteristic 0.  

Since ${\rm{char}}(K)=0$, so surjective homomorphisms between linear algebraic $K$-groups induce surjections between Lie algebras, the *connected* smooth closed image of a $K$-homomorphism $G' \rightarrow {\rm{GL}}(W)$ is contained inside the smooth closed $K$-subgroup $P$ of automorphisms that restrict to the identity on a specific subspace of $W$ if and only if the induced map of Lie algebras ${\rm{Lie}}(G') \rightarrow {\rm{End}}(W)$ factors through the Lie subalgebra ${\rm{Lie}}(P)$ of endomorphisms that kill that specified subspace. Thus, the subspace of $G'$-invariants on a finite-dimensional algebraic representation $W$ of $G'$ is the same as the subspace of ${\rm{Lie}}(G')$-invariants under the corresponding representation of ${\rm{Lie}}(G')$ on $W$.   

Step 5: We're reduced to proving the semisimplicity of the finite-dimensional representation theory of the Lie algebra $\mathfrak{h}$ of a connected semisimple group $H$ over a field $K$ of characteristic 0.  By the theory of Lie algebras in characteristic 0, it suffices to show that $\mathfrak{h}$ is semisimple in the sense of Lie algebras. (This is not a tautology: it requires some input from the theory of algebraic groups, since solvable normal Lie subalgebras do not necessarily "integrate" to Zariski-closed subgroups. But I don't know a reference, so I give a proof below.) 

It is harmless to extend the ground field so that $K$ is algebraically closed and hence $H$ admits a (split) maximal torus $T$ and the associated root system formalism. In particular, the weight-space decomposition of $\mathfrak{h}$ under $T$ has ${\rm{Lie}}(T)$ as the weight space for 0, and the nonzero weight spaces are 1-dimensional and come in pairs $\mathfrak{h}_a, \mathfrak{h}_{-a}$ generating the non-solvable $\mathfrak{sl}_2$.

Let $\mathfrak{s}$ be the solvable radical of $\mathfrak{h}$, so we want to show that $\mathfrak{s} = 0$.  This radical is stable under all automorphisms of $\mathfrak{h}$, and so under the adjoint action of $H$.  Thus, it admits a weight space decomposition under the $T$-action.  If the $T$-action is nontrivial then $\mathfrak{s}$ would have to contain one of the lines $\mathfrak{h}_a$, and then applying the adjoint action of a suitable element of $N_H(T)(K)$ (representing the reflection $r_a$ that swaps $a$ and $-a$) we see that $\mathfrak{h}_{-a}$ is also contained in $\mathfrak{s}$.  This would imply that the solvable $\mathfrak{s}$ contains the Lie subalgebra generated by $\mathfrak{h}_a$ and $\mathfrak{h}_{-a}$, a contradiction since this subalgebra is the non-solvable $\mathfrak{sl}_2$.

We conclude that the $T$-action on $\mathfrak{s}$ is trivial.  But $T$ was arbitrary and (as for any connected reductive group over an algebraically closed field) $H$ is generated as an algebraic group by its maximal tori, so the adjoint action of $H$ on $\mathfrak{s}$ is trivial.  The subspace of invariants in $\mathfrak{h}$ under the adjoint action of $H$ is the Lie algebra of the scheme-theoretic center $Z$ of $H$ (as in any characteristic), so since $Z$ is finite etale (as $H$ is connected semisimple and ${\rm{char}}(K) = 0$) we conclude that ${\rm{Lie}}(Z) = 0$, so $\mathfrak{s} = 0$.  This proves that $\mathfrak{h}$ is semisimple.
