"What we do know is that, even after billions of years of evolution, not a single rock has evolved to exhibit a sign of intelligence." Is it even appropriate to apply "after billions of years of evolution" to rocks? Rocks don't evolve. Evolution can't act on them. And, we aren't generally looking to "evolve" AI, so it's kinda a moot point there, too. What is it about animation that, to you, is important for intelligence? Presumably it's the training data + agency, but.. are these not possible without physical-world "animation"? But also: how come AI can't be animated?
