I've resolved my problem with the next code:

 

offsetX = 200 - app.activeDocument.activeLayer.bounds[0].as("px");
offsetY = 500 - app.activeDocument.activeLayer.bounds[1].as("px");
app.activeDocument.activeLayer.translate(offsetX, offsetY);

 

200 and 500 are the coordinates set in pixels in my case.

One can transform (scale, rotate, …) a Smart Object via Script so what is giving you problems?
