Did you try calling your phone before it was locked? If you did and they didn't pick up and they are ignoring the rewards for returning it I would think they have no intention of returning it. Cops might be the only option if they even want to persue it....

Can that phone ever be re-activated on another account if mobleme locked it?
Whoever has it shut it down immediately after stealing it. I called it minutes after I realized it was gone and it was already going straight to voicemail.

I've since deactivated my services so I don't get a crazy bill run up.

The phone can be put into recovery mode and hacked to be usable again but I don't believe they'll ever be able to use it as a "normal" phone (i.e. it will always have to be hacked).
