I also had some problems with sending my Log4Net logs to AI in a Sitecore website. Sitecore has their own implementation of Log4Net so it didn't worked with the AI Nuget package. I've made my own Apprender in which I send the logs to AI.

 public class CustomLogFileAppender : SitecoreLogFileAppender
    {
        protected override void Append(LoggingEvent loggingEvent)
        {
            if (Sitecore.Context.Site != null )
            {

                if(loggingEvent.Level == Level.FATAL)
                {
                    AppsInsightsLogHelper.Critical(loggingEvent.RenderedMessage);
                }

                if (loggingEvent.Level == Level.ERROR)
                {
                    AppsInsightsLogHelper.Error(loggingEvent.RenderedMessage);
                }

                if (loggingEvent.Level == Level.WARN)
                {
                    AppsInsightsLogHelper.Warning(loggingEvent.RenderedMessage);
                }

                if(loggingEvent.Level == Level.INFO)
                {
                    AppsInsightsLogHelper.Info(loggingEvent.RenderedMessage);
                }


            }

                base.Append(loggingEvent);
        }
    }

In sitecore.config:
