I think the point was that the hardware implementation is what could be infringing, it seems you are thinking the instruction set itself is? AMD has the rights to x86, and some like transmeta did x86 translation in the chip.

The edit OP made now includes that Apple Silicon may infringe, but original wording was just Rosetta. Rosetta isn't infringing, because it's not actually implementing anything other than translation. It is possible AS is infringing on a patent, but that wasn't there originally in the post. New context changes the discussion.
