There are no emperors in Rome now-a-days, and nobody is persecuting Christians in Rome. Indeed, Rome is the centre of the Roman Catholic Church.

Who were the emperors persecuting Christians in Rome in 64 CE?

There were no emperors persecuting the Christians in 64 AD. This is a misconception. 64 was the year of the Great Fire of Rome and the emperor Nero was in power. Nero did not persecute the Christians for their religion. Nero punished the Christians for the crime of arson. After the outrage died down, the Christians were free to worship as they saw fit.

Who was the supreme ruler of Rome who persecuted the Church in the Bible?

The Bible does not mention any Roman Emperor as persecuting the Church. In fact, there does not appear to have been any widespread, official persecution of the Church during the first century. The only exception to the first-century emperors ignoring or tolerating the Christians was when Emperor Nero blamed the Christians of Rome, probably unfairly, for starting the Great Fire of Rome. Edward Gibbon (The Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire) says that this did not extend to a general persecution of Christians throughout the empire.
