I learned about the breach a few days ago but I didn't know that you could "adopt" an emoji: https://aac.unicode.org/sponsors

That's a neat tidbit.

Does "adopting an emoji" mean something other than "appearing on that page"?

From the adoption page: Each adoption comes with a digital badge and certificate that you can proudly display.

It also appears to be a $5k permanent backlink from unicode.org, custom anchor text even.
It’s a fun way to donate.
It's just a way to donate, similar to lots of "adopt a xxx" programs.
