If you forced more air into the engine that could cause the plate to move giving more fuel... but you would also have more air in the engine to burn the fuel

Nitpick: CIS does not have a mass airflow sensor. It has an airflow meter. It has no way to know the actual mass of the air... that's what a hot wire or hot film MAF is able to figure out. Similarly my SDL has an airflow meter... a plate that is spring loaded and is forced open by air moving past it.
