There are so many ways trade goes in and out of China, and so many trading partners, I think it is next to impossible to prevent them from getting what they want, if they are willing to spend the money.
They're still getting plenty of Nvidia GPUs. Someone in Jensen Huang's inner circle apparently runs a number of companies in Singapore that have been found to source GPUs at scale. The catch is that she has close ties to Beijing and is suspected of working closely with their government, potentially even spying for them.
This was reported just a week or two ago and is just one example of how China is still getting their hands on resources they're supposedly unable to get.
