You could do a VATS bypass.

Perhaps the VATS module has failed. This is the device that read the resistance on the chip on the key.

Under some conditions the vats module has to relearn the key.. This is done by turning the key to the on position and wait until the security/theft light goes out.
Do this three times and it relearns the module.. After that the car MAY start.

Someone on here used a Multimeter that had the capability to insert a 50hz signal via the probe on the PCM side of the car and was able to start the vehicle. But I don't remember who or what though.
