Rename the file to the same name as what? Itself? That really doesn't
make much sense at all, unless the person was trying to some sort of
action on the file to get the Finder's databases updated. In that case
it's probably just better to do the update command:
tell application "Finder"
update theFile
end tell
Where theFile is a reference to the file in question. You can find the
update command in the Finder dictionary under Finder
items->commands->update

Make any
