What works
This is for Origin Digital Deluxe Sims 4 edition.
Installs with a workaround.
What does not
Nothing else tested/works because it cannot be activated after first run.
Obviously the DRM is unsupported in wine.
No actual errors or fix-me debug messages at the time of the first connection for activation.
Workarounds
After first start an error appears that cannot connect to Origin servers to activate the game. There are a lot of Mac and Windows users that have the same problem and they could never resolve it (see EA forums)
What was not tested
Everything else was not tested because the game cannot start at all.
Hardware tested

Additional Comments
The same problem is seen with wine-5.14-staging. The difference is that it has not got the permissions problem during Origin install.
Lutris doesn't work either.
No actual errors or fix-me debug messages at the time of the first connection for activation.
