No, I’m not saying that at all. I am going to do my best on the SAT regardless. My question is if it’s worth it to improve one’s SAT score beyond an already good score by paying for extra tutoring and practice, reason being that a higher score is obviously better but on the contrary could warrant some speculation as to whether or not one is “truly” a URM.

In other words, if I already have a good score, should I do everything within my power to get an even better score which might include spending saved up money for a tutor or will this just be seen as “upper middle class supposed URM” (even if that is not the case at all)?

You took things completely out of context-- obviously to promote your agenda.
