Plain srun re-uses the existing Slurm allocation, and specifying resources like --mem will just request then from the current job rather than submitting a new one
srun does that as it sees all the various SLURM_* environment variables in the environment of the running job. My bet would be that if you eliminated them from the environment of the srun then you would get a new allocation.
I've done similar things in the past to do an sbatch for a job that wants to run on very different hardware with:
env $(env | awk -F= '/^(SLURM|SBATCH)/ {print "-u",$1}' | paste -s -d\ ) sbatch [...]
So it could be worth substituting srun for sbatch there and see if that helps.
