No. Rötschreck doesn't care how the damage will be handled.
It only cares that a minion attempt to inflict aggravated damage
on a vampire (in combat).

Moot.

Sudden Reversal
Psyche! or Telepathic Tracking will save the victim from torpor
(but he still receives the Rötschreck card and therefore fails to
untap in his next untap phase), as they start/extend combat
interrupting the effect that both ends combat and does something else.
You can keep Rötschreck from being played by being at the wrong
range (a short range agg strike made at long range doesn't meet
the "on a vampire" requirement). Or by preventing the aggravated
damage attempt from being made (Immortal Grapple for some cases,
Thought's Betrayed for some cases, Direct Intervention for some
cases, etc.)
