It might not spoil in the sense that you can smell or taste spoilage, but it might not be safe to eat. There are no guarantees that pathogens have grown in it or that someone would get sick, but it isn't worth the risk. Discard it.

Yes. Botulism bacteria can grow and is more likely to do so in a sealed container. Boiling for 10 minutes or freezing will kill the botulism bacteria but not the spores. You can't depend on odor or flavor either: four strains of the botulism bacteria are odorless. It's not worth the chance.

Generally a soup can be safe to eat for three to four days if it has been properly refrigerated. Soup that has been frozen can last from two to three months.

Any soup can be safely stored in the refrigerator for 3 - 4 days. A good alternative is to freeze your soup for later use.

Yes, in a day or two. Most soups will keep 4-5 days in fridge , IF in a container with no air.
