No, you get the 5% when you buy the gift card. You don't get to double dip on that $100 for another 5% when you use the gift card. But you have also gotten the extra $5.
So the $100 out of pocket WILL earn you $10 (5% rewards ($5) + $5 bonus). You just don't get any more rewards points when you use the gift card. You've earned your rewards points up front with the gift card purchase.
