First of all, it isn't a "resign to run" law since incumbents don't have to resign to run for reelection. It is just incumbents changing the rules to favor incumbents.
Second, Rick Scott is governor of Florida. Rubio's candidacy would be official during the convention. His seat could be left vacate until January. If, and when, he loses his bid for Vice-President, Governor Scott could reappoint him to the Senate. I'm sure the GOP caucus would restore his seniority.
