Since everything is a work account, wouldn't everything be up to date anyways across users? How can I see if an old cache file is being used? Friday when everyone was done using it, I copied the data, deleted the file on Teams and re-uploaded a new file and we are still haveing the same issue.

If you (as far as the desktop app is concerned) created a new file, this excludes cache being the problem. Wrt to your question, I don't know, I just know desktop apps cache the file*. I assume you've checked the other things and found no issues. Maybe a track changes / show markup issue? Some display options only show changes from specific users. Maybe try sharing the file outside of that particular library e.g. OneDrive. Same issue? Desktop app version? Check for updates. Good luck.
* this is where the 'recovered file options' come from if the app crashes with a file open i.e. a local cache.
