I guess there can be an element of truth (10%? 1%?) in the reporting, just greatly exaggerated and distorted - it won't surprise me if Intel actually had a minor order on something from TSMC.

But I do understand your cynicism on Taiwanese media. From the PTT link, I see one comment says,

> 現在放消息都會被當出貨文.....

Which translate to: Right now, whatever the news leak says, it's all believed [by people] to be a pump-and-dump story.

I guess there was 180k wafers allocated to Huawei before US sanction, but that has nothing to do with Intel.
