(add-hook 'calc-embedded-new-formula-hook #'evil-emacs-state)

does the trick of changing to evil-emacs-state here. I don't know about
a method for returning to some Evil state after exiting calc-embedded.

But if I invoke calc-embedded while Evil is in insert-state, I can use
calc-embedded just fine, at least for the simple tests I've tried.
