It can never heal 100% because a torn acl will never grow back. It is possible to not have surgery on a partially torn acl if you strengthen your leg muscles around it and wear a brace. I have a buddy who completely tore his and didn't have surgery and is able to get by with a brace, but he has big quads and hamstrings that give him the support.
