I think this is not so hard to check (unless I miss something) and depends
on the semantics we give to disjunction (exclusive or not). I am using
exclusive for the examples

Since the validation engine will check for the validity of the defined
properties we would only need an extra query for the closed shape checking,
meaning no other properties exist other than the ones defined in the shape.

case 1: conjuctiveShape { ex:p1 [...] AND ex:p2 [...] AND ex:p3 [...] }
SELECT ?root WHERE
?root rdf:type/rdfs:subClassOf* <C1 > # or use the focus node here
?root ?p ?o
FILTER ( ! (?p  IN (ex:p1, ex:p2, ex:p3)))

case 2: disjunctiveShapeSimple { (ex:p1 [...] OR  ex:p2 [...] OR ex:p3
[...] )}

SELECT ?root WHERE
?root rdf:type/rdfs:subClassOf* <C1 > # or use the focus node here
?root ?p ?o
FILTER ( ! ((?p  IN (ex:p1) && ?p NOT IN (ex:p2, ex:p3))  || (?p  IN
(ex:p2) && ?p NOT IN (ex:p1 , ex:p3)) || (?p  IN (ex:p3) && ?p NOT IN
(ex:p1 , ex:p2)))


case 3: disjunctiveShapeComplex { (ex:p1 [...] AND  ex:p2 [...]) OR (ex:p1
AND ex:p3 [...] )}

SELECT ?root WHERE
?root rdf:type/rdfs:subClassOf* <C1 > # or use the focus node here
?root ?p ?o
FILTER ( ! ( (?p  IN (ex:p1, ex:p2) && ?p NOT IN (ex:p3))  || (?p  IN
(ex:p1,  ex:p3) && ?p NOT IN (ex:p2)))

Best,
