What DAW Was Used On What Film ?

I don't think I'll be buying a record by Elfman, but there are things to learn from. He's not a trained composer, he made it up as he went.

The Batman Returns soundtrack is exquisite, and it includes "Face To Face," Elfman's collaboration with Siouxsie & the Banshees. Well worth it to own.

Iirc, Danny Elfman is strictly into DP,

LOL! It has been a while since I laughed while reading an intrancer thread.

What films were scored with Ableton?

Anything Ben Frost (Dark, Sleeping Beauty, 1899) has done, though he also uses Pro Tools, as well as Bobby Krlic (Midsommer).

I believe the industry standard is ProTools. But I think I saw Ableton on the screen of Ludwig Göransson's DAW in the video extras of Tenet.

nah, Pro Tools is probably not where too many compose. It's a fair truism to say the DAW for writing can be anything, the DAW for the mix and post- tends in a case like Ableton to be another, better designed for it. When I got into DAW workflow Logic for composition to Pro Tools to mix was fairly prevalent.

Mixing/mastering for TV isn't quite as big a deal as for theatrical mopics because of the size of the theater and the impression of depth and width is attended to, not to mention the volume and attendant issues there (noise floor, for one).
