The question is if House Hohenzollern or their members around this time had a substantially impact on the rise and establishment of, and support for Nazi-Germany. Which is... doubtful. At least as far as the "significant" part is concerned.
The framing of the law is less that the ex-royals played a major part in supporting the Nazis and moreso whether or not they 'supported' the Nazis beyond the line which the conditions of the time would have required you to as a regular citizen. ie lots of people did not openly denounce Nazism or wore swastika armbands or etc at the time because doing so would have gotten you persecuted. But becoming an active member of the party, for example, or hosting Nazi officials as part of a campaign for your restoration, would be beyond that line.
