Yes, collapse does imply non-locality, but note that in the MWI there is no collapse. There is no real "splitting of Worlds" in the MWI either, it's only an effective splitting that can be interpreted as an effective collapse as observed in the various effective worlds.

And that observation is predicted by events spacelike separated from it.

And that ability for Alice to predict what Bob will find, poses a problem for single world collapse theories. Only there does new information appear after a measurement and that then happens in a non-local way when making certain measurements on entangled pairs of particles.

There are only four cases without collapse and in every case Alice can predict Bob's result.  The very fact, which you have brought up, that any hidden variable theory that explains the results must be non-local (like Bohmian QM) shows that effect is non-local.
