in 0g, object that does not leave contact with the curved (by-whatever-means) rubber sheet will behave the same way
An inert object will sit on it kissing it and never go anywhere. The curvature of a sheet doesn’t matter cause there’s no “down” and no forces. If you push it “in” a little and release, the sheet tension will push it back out but not “to” the well. You may start accelerating the system to create gravity-like situation, but that’s the point.
