When someone is said to “thrust their nose in” (or “poke their nose into”) something, it means they’re involving themselves in an intrusive or nosy manner in a situation that isn’t their business or responsibility.
Imagine someone leaning over a metaphorical fence, trying to catch a glimpse of what’s happening next door—except instead of peeking, they’re actively participating in the drama!
