It doesn't load the metadata. Not even the cached one.

Unlike "yum list available", which even refreshes _disabled_ repos.

Only if the installation history is found in yumdb (see /usr/sbin/yumdb),
but it cannot rely on that information, and deleting yumdb doesn't change
the colours in "yum list installed" output. All I does is to compare the
installed package with the metadata for the enabled repos and detect the
different version.  Then it prints the package in yellow, not in
red. Additionally, it looks at yumdb to find out from which repo the
installed package came from and prints out that detail.
