Not even close to true. A civilization who could construct such a feature could very easily avoid that. Solar wind is always pushing outwards. So the entire sphere could be made of vents that can open/close to modify where pressure is pointing, and the structure could stay in place. It would be powered by solar energy. Yes, I know one won't ever be constructed. But there are no laws of physics being broken.
