What about d8 and promote to queen?  Looks like a win to me.

d8=Q is illegal. The pawn is pinned to the king.

is there a rule I'm missing that explains why the solution can't be blocked with qd6 whereas rd5 and qd5 can be blocked by the bishop?

The BQ on e5 is pinned by the WR on e1.

Sorry, there is a bug on chess.com where any puzzle/game diagram posted in the first comment appears as a standard setup instead of a puzzle, so nothing to see here, sorry, but if you want to know, second post works perfectly fine for posting puzzles
