1-It only 'entered' her body enough for the tip to be inside her, which can be explained as the stomach being pressed down by the blade like when you poke someone in the stomach with a finger.

2-She had no issues picking up and carrying a dead weight despite how much any sort of gut injury cripples you (especially when it comes to lifting)

3-Her aura was not broken from the blow (she didn't have the shimmer Mercury had when his aura broke) and she created a clone only a few minutes after being stabbed. 1-Pedanticoman is here to save the day! Spirit, if the tip of the blade, even just the tip, was inside Blake, then it pierced her skin. If it did not pierce the skin, then it was outside the skin, but pressing down on her body, with would be painful even if Adam's sword isn't the most pointy of them all.

2-Correct me if I'm wrong, but, IIRC she did not lift Yang, she carried her by the shoulder. And even then, Blake wasn't doing so smoothly and effortlessly at all.

3-True. Regardless of whether her skin was pierced or not, she still had enough Aura to make a Clone. So either her Aura was not broken, or those clones are worth less than my country's coin.

But regarding the shimmer, Yang did not show any shimmers either (her arm was bleeding Aura, but there was no shimmer). So perhaps it was an animation messup.

Or perhaps not, considering in V4 Ruby's Aura showed the sparks like 4 times in a row when Tyrian was beating her up. Maybe the shimmers and/or the sparks mean something else, but related or close to having no Aura.
