Actually, a corporation can be found to have committed a crime. It can't go to prison, but there are other possible penalties. In some states, the corporation could even be dissolved if convicted of felonies.
It can't happen in this particular lawsuit because it's a civil lawsuit. The government would have to bring criminal charges in a separate legal proceeding.
In this civil case, yes, the court can award damages and enjoin Uber from using anything it allegedly stole from Waymo. that could, as you say, cripple their entire self-driving car operation.
