You probably don't need to change entirely the word so much as you need to change the notification emails and possibly whereever they show up in the CP. The output text should be someplace isolated from where ever the system keeps track of them internally. In other words, you don't need to change what the system calls them, just how it reports them.

Unfortunately vBulletin doesn't seem to have a free version for me to rip apart looking, so I can't tell you exactly what to change. My hunch is that it's got a english strings file that contains the English phrases that it uses commonly, and somewhere in there you can change "Infraction" to "Loving Feather Duster Application".
