No, Brazilian do no find offensive when spoken in Spanish. They are very open and friendly people and will do anything to help the communication. Although, they mind when everyone thinks or approach them as if they have the same cultural backgrounds and roots as any other spanish colonized country - they will happily correct that they were not colonized by Spaniards and that they do no speak Spanish and their language is Portuguese.
