Description
In Italian, «» are used for outer quotes, and "" for inner quotes, and the it-IT CSL locale (lines 74–77) specifies this. When a pandoc citation has a quotation with inner and outer quotes in its suffix, the inner quotes are changed from "" to «» if the locale is it-IT, whether this is specified by pandoc lang metadata or a default-locale="it-IT" attribute on the style element in the CSL file.
I assume this is a bug in citeproc because it does not happen to quotations in body text.
