In case anyone has the same problem, my current workaraound for this is 
disabling "pretty entities" for sub/superscript when using cdlatex:

(add-hook 'cdlatex-mode-hook
 (lambda () (when (eq major-mode 'org-mode)
  (make-local-variable 'org-pretty-entities-include-sub-superscripts)
   (setq org-pretty-entities-include-sub-superscripts nil))))
