    Ummm I'm not really sure what this is. I believe it looks like an alocasia? If so you may have a chance. Get rid of all the soil and you'll see little corms those are like little tubers that the plant puts out if you put them in a high humidity environment (like In a takeout container filled with damp sphagnim moss), and keep it slightly warm. It will bounce back. Right now it might be Inna state of dormancy and that might bring it back.

    It’s dead. Tropical plants can’t survive the cold. It’s less stressful to get another plant than to worry over this one.

    If you want to try to bring it back I would repot it and see don’t keep watering it maybe once a week for about a month then see how it is if not start watering it twice a week

    Yes, it's dead. Even most winter hardy perennials will not survive in a pot throughout the winter. Not all but most.
