It would negate Isildur's free will because he would be physically forced to destroy the Ring, i.e., against his will.

But, like I said in my last paragraph, the point is moot if, as I think, no one could voluntarily destroy the One Ring of Power.

If it came down to it, I'm sure Cirdan and Elrond together probably could have forced Isildur into the Crack. But I don't believe it ever could have gotten that far.
