If the C code does something unsafe, how can it be machine-translated into safe Rust, without knowing the intention of the programmer?
You clearly don't understand what's going on here. Rust is magic. Rust makes the grass grow and the birds sing and the sun shine. Translating C to Rust applies the magic to that as well, so it'll also magically turn bad code into good code.
Of course if they were really serious about this then they'd translate it into Haskell, because it's impossible to write buggy code in that, or so an academic once told me.
