Is my assumption that "two buttons" means analog stick/d-pad/arrow keys/mouse movement/etc. are not allowed (unless for example, down on the D-pad is deliberately chosen as one of the two buttons) ?

I'd say it's open to interpretation, but keep in mind that in any jam, your peers and judges will also be interpreting your work, as that's part of the voting criteria.

the mouse cursor is not considered a button surely? So I could use the mouse and it's 2 buttons, left and right click to control everything in game? Or would that be disqualified since a mouse can click on other in game buttons like pause or restart etc

Your post will not be disqualified based on your interpretation of the theme.
