Fix Scipy tests for GPU based docker images

**Issue**: Currently scipy tests are failing when running it for GPU .

More background:
In PyPi, scipy is vended out as a single package. Whereas in Conda forge, scipy is vended out as two different packages - scipy and scipy-tests. (This is a recent change that happened two months ago)

There is a possibility that either one of these packages might be out of date and indirectly causing tests to fail

**Acceptance Criteria**: Scipy tests should succeed for GPU based docker images. Another possible recommendation is to come up with a different testing plan for scipy.

No files or specific test entry points are identified. Start by locating the SciPy tests and package setup used by the GPU-based Docker images, then compare the scipy and scipy-tests package versions from conda-forge. Done means the SciPy tests succeed in those images, or a documented alternative testing plan is agreed.
