Often times under load only. If there is play in a u joint it can cock under load becoming misaligned and therefore unbalanced causing a vibration on accel. Usually regardless of the gear just load. I don't think this is your problem.

I feel like I keep contradicting myself whether it's rpm or speed related lol
Because it is both rpm and speed related and mainly load. To me it sounds like your describing a bad intermediate shaft tapered roller end bearing.

^ saying this I'm assuming the vibration is just the roughness from a bad transmission bearing vibrating through the car under load. And that all your driveshaft angles, u joints, and cv joints are good.
