In the article, the letter says that it is illegal under US law for Russian people or entities to possess this sensitive nuclear technology... My question is, what is the US going to do about it? US law doesn't apply to Russians

US law applies to Russians inside of the United States though. I suppose the US could also request extradition from allied countries as well. Although, we have seen how captured prisoners between the US and Russia are treated and traded..so like you said, there isn’t much the US can do
