Ok - I don't understand much of this at all, but your language "the viral sequence is entering the nucleus and integrating with your DNA." Is this 'replacing' existing DNA? If that's the case, I could see the possibility of replication into a current or future fetus - but if it is just 'extra parts' which is 'integrating' with your DNA, does that logically get replicated and passed on? or would just the 'original' DNA get replicated and passed on to offspring?

It is splicing into DNA so technically no replacing.
If integration occurs with the germ line then yes such changes get passed on to offspring. This is why 20% of human DNA is of viral origin.
According to the study they have yet to determine if the germ line is affected but I am going with a “yes” for now
