I've seen a similar issue reported with Bookerly and there it was traced to the Panose settings. OTOH, I don't see anything in the copy of Literata v3.103 I just downloaded from Google.

I generated a quick and dirty ePub from my Font Tester ePub with the Literata font embedded and it does not seem to have any issue with the renderers used in Sigil, calibre 8.4.101's ebook viewer, a couple of versions of ADE and Thorium. The file should be attached to this message. Could you give it a try and let me know if you seen any pseudo-italic issues.
