How would you do this?

Guys, thanks for all the useful info!
I'm going to try the outlet box removal trick, an access hole in the ceiling
next to the wall to route the wire, and the installation of an 'Old Work'
outlet box for fans...
Still not sure how I'm going to deal with a 'waterfall' of loose insulation
when I make both holes, especially the part about putting it back!
If I pull it off, I'll post the process...
There are special ceiling boxes designed to hold the weigh of a
ceiling fan. A regular 'old work' box will pull out and the fan will
hit the floor, or whatever is in it's path.

You can't fix stupid. You can't even put a Band-Aid™ on it, because it's
Teflon coated.
