There is zero chance that anyone can invade a country and take its semiconductor infrastructure even vaguely intact if the defenders are disinclined to allow it.
A cup of coffee dumped in the machinery would destroy most of it beyond all hope of repair, let alone something fragmentary and full of nitrogen bonds.
The only sanction you could perform would be "no chips for anyone, anywhere".
And in such a, uh, kinetic, situation, I'm absolutely sure neither side will allow the other to retain working facilities that don't undergo very unfortunate accidents. Even a sudden power cut can be devastating. A foil balloon was enough to take out multiple fabs in Germany, and Samsung dropped 3.5% of global flash supply on the floor from 30 minutes down.
I wouldn't want to bet that you could do a $10 billion plus project to build the most complex facility in the world, in a tearing hurry and without complete documentation or vendor support, in a war economy and under international sanctions using a bunch of extremely pissed-off people and have the project go very well at all.
And I'd also bet that a translation of Simple Sabotage would be going viral within the week.

MAD doesn't come only in nuclear flavor.
