Proving him guilty doesn't prevent him from becoming your love interest. Love interest is based on affinity, and although proving him guilty wont win you any points it wont stop him from being your love interest if you up his affinity in another way. If you're afraid someone will become your LI and you don't want it then you can always lower their affinity by various means, the most extreme is attacking/killing them.

Fournival is a very useful NPC since he sells cheap ferrystones plus the unique item Magnanimous Cloak (if you prove him innocent) which partly heals everyone in the party with single target healing items. Plus it looks cool.
