A character cuts their hand accidentally while peeling an apple. It isn't graphic; we mostly just see their reaction. There's another scene where a character's knuckles are scraped and bloody after beating someone up.

Yes, near the end in the scene where Paloma is drugged at the outdoor party. Brief but shown clearly onscreen.

Not in every scene, but there are many scenes with slightly shaky handheld camerawork (especially when characters are walking/running, but also when they're just having a conversation)

It's mentioned that a former student crashed their car while under the influence of drugs. This happened before the events of the film and isn't shown.

There are a few scenes where characters have visible cuts and blood on them as a result of beatings. All, or nearly all, of the actual violence takes place offscreen.
