By does not move, do you mean won't start? Or will not proceed into gear as normal? Automatic or Manual? If automatic, there is a chance that the transmission valve body was damaged in the process. Not very likely, but possible. Normally, this would only cause shift hesitations. However, in extreme cases, it may prevent the car from shifting into gear at all. Also, the shift linkages may have come loose and are not pulling the selector into the appropriate gear. Depending on your engine, they may be easy or difficult to locate. They are easy to locate in the 2.0L and 1.8T, not as easy as the VR6. It's generally best to avoid transmission work yourself. It is complicated, and not worth it, in my opinion. Is it possible? Sure. Is it practical? Not so much.
