In fact, this includes spending an evade token. Check the FAQ or Modifying Dice page for details, but your instruction manual is likely out of date. Any effect that adds a die result is implemented as adding an actual, physical die to the table, which interestingly could be modified by you or the opponent.

This becomes particularly important for Finn, who adds a Blank result. Is that useless? Actually it could be modified or rerolled by the right pilot ability or upgrade card (e.g. Rey). Because he adds an actual die to the table, that die can be changed or rerolled by any effect that rerolls or modifies dice or die results. If it was just an immutable "result" with no die attached, you wouldn't be able to do anything with it, and he'd be 5 points poorly spent.

This change was made some time ago by FFG to address some problems, but Finn is the first card that exploits the "added result is a physical die" change so prominently.
