I can confirm that with
Org mode version 9.3.7 (9.3.7-16-g521d7f-elpaplus @
/home/rafael/Documents/new-emacs.d/elpa/org-plus-contrib-20200803/)
and
GNU Emacs 26.3 (build 2, x86_64-pc-linux-gnu, GTK+ Version 3.18.9) of
2019-12-23
and using org-cdlatex, fr does not expand inside align but it does
inside equation, just as Stefi says.
