It depends on the facts that you didn't provide in your post. For example, how old were you at the time when your mother had naturalized? Did you live in US with her in her custody? Have you renewed your green card since 1990 (when)?

If an individual needs to file N-400 - he is NOT a US citizen, until the N-400 is approved and he takes an Oath of Allegiance.

I suggest you consult a lawyer before you are deported.
