I think it would be easier to cut and copy the audio to different tracks, and have dedicated 
EQs on each channel.  Make the output of all those channels Bus 1 (for example) and use 
that as your master vocal track.  

If for some reason, you choose to automate the track.  Select the track in the arrange 
window (it will turn grey in the name area), then press the letter A on the keyboard.  The 
defualt is volume, but hold the mouse on that area and you can navigate to EQ/Bypass.  
That's what I would automate, not the individual bands of frequencies, too confusing.  
Once you draw in automation by clicking dots and dragging in the arrange view the 
automation setting will change automatically from "off" to "read."  

I've automated a "bypass" plenty of times, but it's usually just once on a track, if it was 
much more complicated I'd probably split it out to multiple tracks.
