A myriad of factors, all of the factors you mentioned could be a good explanation and it all depends on the community. Fear of socialism would make more sense for Cubans and Venezuelans, while border issues/social conservatism seem to be the rightward push factor for Tejanos.
One that you didn't mention is assimilation. The more a minority group assimilates into the mainstream, the more right wing they tend to get. Race must play a factor, especially for white Hispanics who would naturally feel less like a minority than a very visibly non-white group like black or Asian Americans, and therefore less likely to vote on the basis of in-group preferences
