As a guess, I tried yum update --exclude '*fusion*'
It ran and did updates.
Following that with a yum update
gave me a nothing to do.
Of course. You would have gotten the same "nothing to do" if you had run
dnf --disablerepo rpmfusion-nonfree-updates update

Well I don't know how/if the output would have been different if dnf had been used to
install. But I
would have expected something like.
rpmfusion-nonfree-appstream-data.noarch 34-1.fc34
@rpmfusion-nonfree
Indicating that the install was via the repo. What I see above suggests it was installed
after downloading
an rpm.
LIke this one I had done after download a utility....
usbcaptureutility.x86_64 3.0.3.4202-1.el7.centos @@commandline
But, I had installed the rpm using dnf. So, it does show up as a transaction.

No transaction which manipulates package 'rpmfusion-nonfree-appstream-data' was
found.
[root@localhost entries]#
Wow.
This suggests to me that maybe "rpm" was used directly to install.

I took it as a request to continue without a valid key.
No... It did say "Importing GPG key..." And you are being asked if that is
OK.
You could always try....
dnf erase rpmfusion-nonfree-appstream-data
and see if a package needs it.
