What is the difference between clearing a cell and deleting the contects of a cell?

You're mixing up terminologies here. A cell can be cleared or deleted. When we delete a cell, the cell is physically removed from the table. The cells in the same row or column then slide into its place depending on which option we choose (shift up or slide left). When we clear a cell we remove the cell's content, but the cell itself is not removed. The cell content includes any formatting we've applied to the cell. That is, the cell will revert to the current default format.

Can formatting change the actual data in the cell in Excel?

Formatting won't change the actual data. It may change how it looks, so it appears to be different. For example if you reduce the amount of decimal places in a number, it may round the number up, so 3.46 could be displayed as 3.5, but it won't change the actual value. Even though you would now see 3.5 it will still contain 3.46 and use that in the calculations it is used in.
