The time of mobilizing the Armies was crucial in WW1. So lets asume that Germany don´t declare war on France but is mobilizing the Army. Is there a point were France if it´s mobilizing its Army has to declare war on Germany or has to forget the whole idea about a war with Germany?

No, France’s economy was strong at the time; they could afford the diversion of manpower from industries. The diplomatic crisis would have been resolved, or war would have come, well before France reached a crisis point.
