There would have to be a court case and ruling before Apple could be threatened with a fine. For messaging this isn’t the case (so far). Apple doesn’t restrict access to messaging apps. You can install iMessage competitors.
The RCS apple is implementing is Google’s standard. That they control and have restricted access to. So far only Google, Samsung and Apple have been allowed to use it.
