Nested VMs are not supported in VirtualBox, for many reasons. One of them is that VT-x is used by VirtualBox itself, not reflected into the guest OS.

Yes, that's what it means.
OSX, Linux and Windows Hosts & Guests
There are three groups of people. Those that can count and those that can't.

No OS or application which requires VT-x or AMD-v for its own use will run in a VirtualBox VM.
