"Call into ___ " means to cause someone or something to do or be ___. An example, "call into question" is to cause something or someone to be evaluated. In your context, "call into action" is to cause someone to act/do something. The writer of this article inserted "any telling" in order to modify "action." Telling is used here as an adjective, meaning "significant."
