I ran some more tests which pretty much confirm the previous findings.

On AMD UpdateTexture seems to always convert data between different
formats (e.g. A8R8G8B8 -> R32F, red has the correct converted values).
I'm not sure about the UNORM -> SNORM conversion, that one might be
broken but I didn't look very hard into it.
On Nvidia it looks like data is copied if the source and destination
formats have the same bpp (e.g. UNORM -> SNORM, but even A8R8G8B8 ->
R32F gives the expected result of a "reinterpretation" of the data as
in the destination format), otherwise nothing happens and the
destination texture stays black. When it does work data is just
copied, e.g. the X channel is copied intact into the A channel in
X8R8G8B8 -> A8R8G8B8. For what it's worth, the X channel seems to be
preserved on AMD too.
