Modern Computers are capeable to wake from keyboard, wake from
mousemovement, Powerbutton, even wake from action of specific PCIe
Cards.
All of this needs power, to detect this action. 
Since ATX a normale PC, which was switched off by software
(Hibernation or even shutdown) does use power. That is one of the
reasons you have to unplug computers, when working inside of them. At
least the 5V are active.

Exception 1: when you flip the switch on the psu oder pull the cord
from the socket, then it really is off. (this december I build a
gaming pc for a friend and even when the system is shutdown, the ARGB
fans were illuminated (took me some time to find this option in the
UEFI to shut even this off).

Exception 2: Notebooks need to conserve power. Most of them can really
hibernate or shutdown without power consumption.
(But even some Notebooks have the option to activate one oder some USB
Ports so they can wake up or loas a smartphone or so.)

The days of PC who really do not use power, when shut down, is long
over (since we have ATX psu and similar "inventions").
