The IRS has records for the stimulus payments that have been distributed.  The IRS will adjust your tax return and remove the credit from the federal tax refund.  You do not have to amend the 2020 tax return for this issue.

No do not amend.  If you have an amount for it on 1040 line 30 the IRS will take it off your refund.   They know they sent it to you.  So don't be surprised or upset if you get a smaller refund or the IRS sends you a bill.
