The title is misleading. The Pennsylvania Supreme Court refused to accept the petition for the appeal and allow it to be heard. Here is the totality of what it said.

PER CURIAM DECIDED: March 31, 2016 AND NOW , this 31st day of March, 2016, the Order of the Commonwealth Court is hereby AFFIRMED .Victor Williams’s pro se Notice to Intervene as Appellant is DENIED . Appellant’s Application for Oral Argument is DENIED

So once again we see that the matter is a political hot potato in which there will be no effort to decide the merits.

It will be interesting to see if Mr. Elliot tries to go to the SCOTUS and, if he does, what results.

That's the whole point.

On its merits, Ted Cruz is not eligible to be the President of the United states.

However, there is no judge - especially at the state level - who is going to overturn the apple cart and rule ineligible a leading presidential candidate, well into the primaries, and who has been a sitting Senator. This decision is political more than anything else.
