Answer 1

Yes, Flutter renders with Skia also on iOS. Skia is written in C and that can usually be compiled for any platform. Skia also addresses graphics hardware directly and therefore doesn't depend that much on the target platform.

Answer 2

Skia "serves as the graphics engine for Google Chrome and Chrome OS, Android, " Firefox, Flutter, Fuchsia, and others.

That just means that Skia is used by those products. Skia is currently actively tested on Linux, Windows, MacOS, ChromeOS, Android, and iOS.
