Well it couldn't easily evolve to support things like GPUs and lots of RAM (happily Symbian is very memory efficient) because the new CEO was busy burning the platform. The fact that Belle got released at all under that regime is testament to the developers Nokia had.

And speaking of releases, Google still can't roll out a release like Nokia did for Belle. They even managed it for operators which refused to sign off the new firmware by that time because Nokia's operator relationships had been trashed by updating everything above the part of the stack which required operator approval.
