Yes, the subjective pronoun "I" is correct as the subjectof the second part of the compound sentence following the conjunction "than" (Natalia is a better cook than I am.)

Is it correct to say 'It was they who were to blame'?
Yes, the sentence is correct.The pronoun 'they' is a subjective personal pronoun. In the example sentence, the pronoun 'they' is functioning as a subject complement following a linking verb (It = they). A pronoun that follows a linking verb is always the subjective form.A linking verb acts as an equals sign, the object is a form of the subject (Mary is my sister. Mary=sister); or the subject becomes the object (Mary's feet got wet. feet->wet).A subject complement takes the place of a direct object following a linking verb and restates the subject of the sentence.The subject complements are:a predicate nominative is a noun or a pronoun following a linking verb;a predicate adjective is an adjective following a linking verb.

What is the object pronouns in this sentence Will you and he be flying to Portugal with her and she?
The object pronouns used in the sentence are her and you. The pronoun you can be a subject or object pronoun. The pronoun she is a subject only pronoun and can't be used as the object of the preposition 'with'. To be correct, the prepositional phrase is '...with her and her', but I don't recommend it. A better way to word the prepositional phrase is:Will you and he be flying to Portugal with them.
Is the pronoun in this sentence correct... Both the teachers and the students were delighted at him receiving such high SAT scores?
The pronoun in the sentence, 'him', is correct if the one the sentence refers to is a male. The pronoun 'him' is a singular, objective, personal pronoun which is functioning as the object of the preposition 'at'.The preposition 'at' is not the best choice, a better choice is 'for' (were delighted for him).Note: The word 'both' can function as an indefinite pronoun when it takes the place of a noun. However, in this sentence, it functions as an adjective, describing the nouns 'teachers and students'.Example use as a pronoun: The teachers and the students were both delighted...
