Then you delete the virtualenv once the docs are built and install the module and the docs for real. It's hard to avoid something like this if using Sphinx's autodoc features that actually import the Python module and build the docs from the docstrings it finds. Sage is likely too complicated for this to work, but you can skip the virtualenv step by having Sphinx work off the copy of the in "build/lib.macosx-10.9-x86_64-3.9" or similar.
