This is talking about López Obrador's failure to comply with an amparo order (amparo being, in Mexico, the law that protects citizens from harm by officials). I don't know how to translate "afectación" ...
El tribunal sentenció: “Con independencia de que dicha afectación se materialice por conducto de un tercero, es incuestionable que el acto es imputable a la autoridad que lo ordenó”. No podía resbalarse la responsabilidad a un subordinado, tampoco a otras autoridades federales, como pretendía el jefe de Gobierno.

Con independencia de que dicha afectación se materialice por conducto de un tercero = Despite the fact that this harm was caused by a third party
I would generically say "harm" here, but not knowing what it was (CONTEXT), I cannot be positive that it is the very best word. Could be "damage" or something else, but that's the idea.

Note from asker:
| Henry: I put part of the preceding paragraph up above, but I think you're right that harm is the correct term. The person had property expropriated for a road building project and he apparently also lost his right of access some remaining land he had. The amparo was issued but it was ignored for over a year while the road continued to be built. |
| I just read the def. posted by gdickie, and it now appears that this may be referring to the expropriation itself... |

Here is a definition that I found through a Google search:
Es la limitación y condiciones que se imponen por la aplicación de una ley al uso de un predio o un bien particular o federal, para destinarlos total o parcialmente a obras de utilidad pública.
f. Falta de sencillez. Poner demasiado cuidado en palabras y gestos de modo que pierdan naturalidad. www.definicion.org/afectacion

regardless of whether the injunction (amparo) was infringed by a third party...
es decir, no importa que el autor material de la violación del amparo haya sido otro, el hecho es imputable a la autoridad que lo ordena
