The 1790 statute was repealed and revised 5 years later. The language is clear and since Cruz's father had just taken the oath for citizenship to Canada he certainly cannot be considered resident under the definition of the time:

And the children of citizens of the United States that may be born beyond Sea, or out of the limits of the United States, shall be considered as natural born Citizens: Provided, that the right of citizenship shall not descend to persons whose fathers have never been resident in the United States.

Residency was defined in that same act as someone under oath declaring that they wished to remain and live in the Untied States.
