If an early distribution from traditional IRA occured in December 2024 but then was rolled over into another IRA 60 days later, February 2025 (within the 60-day rollover rule) how would that be captured on the 2024 tax return?

When you enter the 1099-R, keep going and you will eventually be asked "what did you do with the money." Answer that you rolled it over within 60 days.  (Putting the money back into the same IRA is considered a rollover, the same as if you deposited it into a different IRA.)
