Each of the 52 Earth is surrounded by a multiverse of its own. Each having multiple universes related to their verse. Like Earth 52 will be surrounded by many other universes of the 52nd section of the Orrery.
The important thing is that each of these multiverses have one version of a character. Like you're not going to get 2 Superman's in the 52nd section. In essence you have many universes I don't think they are described as infinite but given the nature of the Orrery and the Bleed there isn't an identified limit.
The 52 system is organized and gives a limited number of versions of characters but it doesn't limit the number of universes.
