Kabbalas hamitzvos, according to R’ Ovadia Yosef and many others, doesn’t mean that nonobservance invalidates the giyur.
What it means is that the ger understands that they’ll be punished if they don’t keep the mitzvot, not that nonobservance makes them non-Jewish.
Once they pass through the mikva, they’re Jews.
