Correct, Cruz is a naturalized citizen at best, since he is born on foreign soil.

If Eleanor had become a British citizen and used her British nationality to expedite Canadian citizenship, how would that affect her claim to American citizenship?

Would the Court be likely to uphold the claim of American citizenship where there has been the allegiance and citizenship to more than one distinct nationality.

Today, yes. After 1948 and before 1967, perhaps. Before 1934, certainly not.
