If the Free Peoples retake a city, does the Shadow lose the points it had from it?
Victory points are based on control of enemy settlements under Military Victory Conditions.

Yes. Points come only from settlements you control at the check, so recapturing removes the control marker and the points. The retaking side does not gain points for its own settlements; Free Peoples score only from Shadow settlements, and losing settlements never subtracts from your own total.
