Worn or bad rings? What signs?
This may sound elementary, but wouldn't your plugs be oily if you were burning oil? In contrast, turbo seals leak out the exhaust side and would never show up on the plugs.
Rings would also blow a ton of oil out of the valve cover vent. Whether that is into a catch can, breather, or back to the intake, it should be easy to tell.
