Official rulings

If the first card the player reveals is an artifact card, they will still have to shuffle their library even though no other cards were revealed this way.

2011-01-01 · Wizards of the Coast

If there are no artifact cards in the player’s library, all the cards in that library are revealed, then the library is shuffled. (The targeted artifact remains sacrificed.)

If the targeted artifact is an illegal target by the time Shape Anew resolves, the spell doesn’t resolve. Nothing else happens.

2011-01-01 · Wizards of the Coast

If the targeted artifact’s controller can’t sacrifice it (due to Tajuru Preserver, perhaps), the other effects of the spell will still happen.
