Why don't you look at its dependencies?

You don't need TeX to produce a document in Info format from Texinfo
source.  And all GNU packages ship prebuilt Info manuals, so even
Texinfo is not a dependency (unless you make modifications to the
manual).

That's not to say that a hypothetical removal of TeX won't affect
Texinfo... you can't even complete `make distcheck' without it as it
attempts to build the standard (pdf, dvi, ps, etc.) targets.
