The local managers of each individual theater. Upper management doesn't hire the grunts. They never see them. Bare in mind, if AMC didn't want people to see this movie they simply wouldn't show it, like every other theater chain. The movie itself was finished in 2018 and, until AMC came along, nobody wanted to show it. They did manage to make a deal with one company a few years ago, but that company ended up getting bought out by Disney, who immediately shelved the movie. And even now, despite the movie's success, no other theater chain wants to show it.

Or maybe they've learned the GetWokeGoBroke lesson from other companies and prefer to show it instead of facing a backlash and losing tons of money.

Perhaps. I think it's more likely that because they're owned by the CCP instead of a western company they either don't care and just want to make money and/or want to foment internal strife through antagonism of the establishment. Either way, they win.
