It's an AMD GPU, so how does it have anything to do with RTX, which is a marketing name for a bundle of Nvidia technologies including the CUDA compute framework, an AI framework, and of course a ray tracing API (which games generally don't touch, because that would limit their ray tracing implementation only to Nvidia GPUs)?

I am assuming they are referring to ray-tracing in general as "RTX". AMD GPUs can do ray tracing.

Yeah, it's not uncommon to do that, it's just that I'd expect better from a tech website.
