Castle doctrine is usually restricted to someone actually being inside your house. First, this isn’t Mr. Cufflink’s house. Second, she hadn’t breached the threshold.
There were cops all around her and Mr. Cufflink doesn’t appear to be a law officer. The big question is why was he carrying a weapon inside the Capitol?

Depends on where you live. Here, anywhere you are legally allowed to be, going about your legal business, you can defend yourself or others. Though Castle Doctrine is not necessarily involved, here. He may be an officer. He may be a congresscritter himself. He may be some other person who had legal business there. He may even be someone who is lawfully armed there. I don't know, and I try not to make unwarranted assumptions. Admittedly, I don't always manage it. Your last question is a good question. Lauren Boebert, the new congresscritter from Colorado is arguing against being prevented from carrying in the House. Supported by 82 of the House members, as well. I'm interested in seeing how that works out, as well.
