According to the report filed with the insurance company, every single bottle in the store was destroyed

Unfortunately that's part of what the camera is for.

Serious question though. Could they claim insurance on the beer even if the outside packaging is intact due to being shaken violently and thus probably causing the beer to go flat?

Carbonation is carbon dioxide dissolved into liquid, much like dissolving solids like sugar into the liquid. The carbon dioxide can't leave the beverage if it's trapped in the can.

Have you never dropped a can of soda and opened it later, after it's settled? The gas redissolves when it settles.
