I don't know what "academic intellect" means but it shows admissions you've got experience running a productive research project of your own. Very valuable to have if you're applying to the "top" schools/research powerhouses

Does a commitment to research that resulted in my own publication in a peer review journal show academic intellect for adcoms?

It's a great accomplishment. But Adcoms find it more pleasing that your intellect demonstrate that you can handle med school, having a good GPA.

Being a good researcher does NOT mean you can be a good med student.

Engaging in research may be viewed as a demonstration of scientific curiosity. Publishing is evidence of research productivity.
