Do you really think auto insurance companies care who is paying them? Why wouldnt they insure an undocumented person? If said undocumented person has a vehicle they wish to insure, any company will gladly take their money.

Yes insurance companies are quite picky about who they insure. They want to know about drivers education, how many years experience driving, prior accidents, prior tickets, etc. For the insurance company it is just a gamble will you give them more money than you cost them.

You dont even need a license or driving record to insure a car. All you need is a car to insure a car. And money!

Well you don't but the insurance company is going to want to know who the primary driver and any other drivers of the car are. For the primary driver at least I'd imagine that they do a check for license/tickets/accidents.

It’s called insurance for a reason. Its not just about the money like you said but making it worth their while and an undocumented person might not be that. I can see them argue a person like that might be an unstable source of income due to poor support system, legal status, etc
