And it's obvious that you can't absorb a jutsu if you aren't able to react on it. There's no evidence Rinnegan can't absorb invisible attacks, although it would be surely impossible without knowing that the attack isactually coming on you or the direction of it (yet it's more crucial in Momoshiki's case, since his absorption ability is limited to the right Rinnegan, while if we had been able to perform Blocking Technique Absorption Seal, then the direction wouldn't have mattered). Otherwise, Momoshiki or any other Rinnegan user should absorb such attacks easily.
