So…
if dark matter exists in dimensions we can't perceive, how many dimensions does it exist in? How many dimensions are there?

The article never said anything about dimensions we can't perceive. It talked about non-locality, which is a property of many particles, not just dark matter. The entirety of quantum computing is based around quantum entanglement, for example, which is also a non-local phenomenon.
