The CISC vs RISC thing is dead. Also modern ARM ISAs aren't even RISC anymore even if that's what they started out as. People have no idea what's going on with modern technology.
X86 can actually be quite low power (see LPE cores and Intel Atom). The producers of x86 don't specialize in that though, unlike a lot of RISC-V and ARM producers. It's not that it's impossible, just that it isn't typically done that way.
