I disagree in that no one would believe Cardin if he revealed Jaune. It's apparent that Glynda already doubts Jaune as a warrior and his (faked) transcripts were the only reason she didn't just send him home.

If a student, even if it is Cardin, came to her with such information as this, I think she would at least look into it. She might even go ask Jaune whether or not it's true, and I doubt Jaune is a good enough liar to get passed Glynda.

So, I think Cardin's threat is very real and will be an important factor for a while.
