It costs 100s of millions of dollars to animate and market a feature Pixar film. It would be very penny-wise/pound-foolish to try to skimp on voice-acting. Animated films will be the last place to start using TTS. Honestly they might ADR people in low budget live-action with TTS before it reaches the major animation studios.

Well, big budget theatrical animated films from major studios like Pixar or DreamWorks, sure.

But most animated films aren't those.
