I'm not sure what you want: do you want to move your forum from /upload to just "/"?

Move all files from the upload directory to the webroot. Once done remoe the upload directory and update the Forum URL in your vBulletin Setttings.

AdminCP > vBulletin Options > vBulletin Options > Site Name/URL/Contact Details

Remember to change that after you moved directories :)
