doesn't mean their office and staff in china don't remotely have access to the data or the ability to replicate it.

I think it's addressed in sources I've linked, there is a whole section describing who have access to data of US citizens. Additionally I don't think US administration will just let them do it (share whatever they want with China), if a deal will be made then US citizens will control who is and how that data is accessed outside US through Oracle, otherwise they would just be banned as national security threat.

Actually the data was already stored in the US as required by US law. The deal with Oracle is to guarantee the access is limited.
And some info about it from them directly:
"As we recently shared with members of Congress, we are working toward a new system in which access to U.S. user data by anyone outside of USDS will be limited by, and subject to, robust data access protocols with monitoring and oversight mechanisms by Oracle."[2]
