Unless you do TWOV you need a Chinese Visa.
Without one of those you won't get on the plane.

Would TWOV apply to YYZ-DTW-PVG-DTW-YYZ arriving in PVG 10/28 at 6:55 PM and leaving PVG 10/29 at 12:30PM? Some places I've looked say 24 hour TWOV does not require country C, but I can't tell for sure. If not, could I travel if I don't plan to leave PVG (ie just spend the night in the airport).

I have not been actively looking, so it's possible that something has changed, but unless something has changed, you will not be allowed to board the plane without a visa or proof of TWOV. Never mind the Chinese, airlines in America don't want to pay the fine ..... and staying at the airport has not been an option in the past.
