The United Nations goal is technically maintaining international peace and security. If they’re always afraid to do something when a country attacks another without provocation, out of fear of escalating the situation, why does it even exist?

They’re not “always” afraid. It’s massively dependent on who is doing the invading.
Small, non-nuclear nation with a limited army and no protection treaties invades someone? Probably likely that the UNSC passes a resolution authorising troop deployment to end the conflict.
When a nuclear country with significant armed forces invades someone it is entirely different as escalating the conflict could be magnitudes worse in terms of death and destruction.
