Assuming that the Cuban system of badges is similar to the Soviet one I would expect three main types of Academy badges.The badge below, a blue enamelled Junior Officer version and a white enamelled one for Military Academies, with the rank of Major and above.
The images of Academy Badges being worn on the right are too small to see any detail, I suspect that they are Soviet Academy Badges though.
