If I get the bronze double crescent shower rod and put it over a standard tub, will water leak on the floor?

Will it cause water to leak down the pipe below your unit if yiu have a loose tiles and grout?
Yes. Tub or shower water entering the wall through loose tiles or grout can run down the pipes, through the holes the pipes are going though, and into the unit below. It is more common for water to get into the unit below from leaking shower doors or poorly used tub/shower curtains that allow water to leak out the face of the tub/shower. It then enters the gap where the tub/shower meets the floor, then builds up on the sub-floor, and eventually into the unit below.
What is the purpose of a vertical shower door seal strip and how does it contribute to the functionality of a shower door?

Possibly, but the supply lines should be in the wall. Even on a slab house, the water should come into the house at the water heater and then be in the walls. Possible heat vent leak? I'm assuming a slab house because if there was access underneath, you would be able to tell if there was a leak.
What causes a drain in the shower to leak?
The shower may be leaking from: 1) A failure of the drain and associated piping itself (e.g., corrosion of the cast iron floor drain), 2) A failure of the shower pan, which is an ostensibly waterproof liner (may be metal or synthetic polymer) embedded in the tile floor (or comprising the plastic floor) which is mechanically connected to the drain; or 3) Leakage of water in the shower's surrounding area (walls, non-pan floor area, etc.) which is accumulating and dripping near the drain.
