Not positive, but I'm pretty sure they had at least 13 cannons. Santa Anna had 6 pounders, but he charged and killed all the Texans before his 12 pounders could arrive. He should've waited, because he probaly would've lost fewer men.

How was the Alamo destroyed?

The Alamo was not destroyed. It still exists today. In 1836, the Alamo's Texan defenders were killed to the last man, but the building was spared from destruction. Mexican field cannons were unable to breach the walls, and Santa Anna refused to wait for his siege cannon to arrive, so he ordered a costly but successful scaling attack over the North Wall of the Alamo. Today, the Alamo is very much intact.
