It's literally about stealing the data from the encryptor, which is usually a trusted machine.

Exactly. Power consumption side channel attacks do nothing for devices operating on already encrypted data, because if it did, it would mean homomorphic encryption is fundamentally broken. The side channel attack is on the original encryptor.
