The only one that seems possible is (5). Even (5) is not a great sentence. You must put a space after a comma.

I don't like the numbering style that you have used. I would say it is incorrect. I recommend one of these:
1. Being told about that now, she's happy.
1) Being told about that now, she's happy.

JumanahDo you mean "2" "3" "4" "5" are grammatically incorrect?I believe you mean 1, 2, 3 and 4, since I said that 5 is possible.
2, 3 and 4 are ungrammatical. 1 is not so completely ungrammatical, but to me seems too much of a strain to accept as correct. 1 and 5 are both somewhat borderline, and opinions about how tolerable they are may vary.
