Here $4A^3+27B^2=31$. A nonzero ordinate of a torsion point must have its square dividing 31, so $y=\pm 1$. The curve equation then becomes $x(x^2+1)=0$, whose only integer solution is $x=0$. No point with $y=0$ exists over the rationals: the monic cubic $x^3+x+1$ has no integer root, since its only possible integer roots are $\pm 1$ and neither works.

It remains to test $(0,\pm 1)$. Doubling either gives abscissa $(1/(\pm 2){)}^2=1/4$, which is not an integer. If the original point were torsion its double would satisfy the integrality part of the Nagell–Lutz theorem, a contradiction. ThereforeThe rational point $(0,1)$ consequently has infinite order, so its multiples give infinitely many distinct rational points.
