It's somewhat simulated. The father is accused of hitting his daughter but it's a trick of the demon and he does not. However, there are slapping noises and the daughter cries very believably.

The spirit/demon makes it look like the father hit the youngest girl and the older sister sees it from behind and assumes he did. The mother sees bruises later and also assumes he did, but he did not.

The mom has two glasses of wine and her boyfriend tells her to slow down. She rolls her eyes but it doesn't show her getting drunk or anything.

There is a scene where the dad looks in the box and finds what looks to me like a tiny dead bird in might be wrong but it definitely looks like a bird to me around 32 mins into the movie

There is a bug in one of the daughters' beds. Bugs fly out of a medicine cabinet as a girl brushes her teeth. In the next scene, her sister is in a room swarming with them. Later, a bug crawls out of a girl's throat.

Kind of. Two people have their eyes and faces look malformed/misshapen but it eventually goes back to normal.

There's some broken glass that the mom steps on and the youngest daughter holds up a shard of glass to stab her but ultimately drops it. The wounds aren't shown.

The spirit/demon thing makes a few people flail around in a vaguely seizure like manner and toward the end the youngest daughter has what looks like a seizure (probably caused by the thing possessing her).

A lot of gagging from the little girl that will make you feel pretty confident she'll v*. But know that she never does. Some triggering gag noises though.

You hear the audio gore mostly at the beginning of the film and the death scene for the teacher as bones are snapped audibly.

Debatable. The kid isn't possessed but the guy that helped get her unpossessed is in a car crash (mostly likely dead) and the box is free.
