Like, would the AI not make those trades because it recognizes that there's a chance they could lose the guy they're trading for, or would they not make it simply because it's a 1-for-1 equal trade for essentially AA/AAA depth?

I don't believe the AI takes into account Rule 5 status. If they're eligible, and likely to be picked, they will put them on the 40-man.
The AI will trade Rule 5 draftees, and value them at full value. So you could possible draft a bunch of guys and trade them if you wanted to game the AI.
