I have a fleet of ec2-instances with Foreman installed on them by default.
I am not using it and it is throwing u security alerts due to out of date
versions. I do not want to go through a patching process to fix a program I
am not using and have no intentions of using. So I want to remove it in its
entirety from my systems.
However I cannot find documentation in the Manual for how to go about an
uninstallation.
Can someone please tell me how to completely remove it from an Amazon Linux
system?

I would like to know, too, to somehow get to a clean slate while
experimenting…

There's no automated way to do this, and given the hundreds of options in the
installer, it's not really possible to doucment all the potential places
where changes may happen.
For a default installer run (Foreman, Proxy, Puppetserver, TFTP) then you'd
want to stop the Proxy and Puppet(,server) processes, remove the Foreman vhost
from Apache, and disable the inetd TFTP config. Plus you may ish to revert
changes to Apache's config and more.
If you're on EC2 though… just rebuild the hosts?
