What Ahsoka said -- the Force resides in all living beings -- is more akin to Empire Strikes Back Yoda's statements. Some people naturally have more ability to access it than others.

The implication of what Huyang says is that no one would have bothered taking Sabine to the Jedi Temple to begin training. She has minimal natural ability with the Force. Ahsoka, in a way, is working with what she has.

Perhaps it was because Sabine inherited Ezra's saber, so that's why Ahsoka began her training. She has a light saber, may as well teach her how to use it properly.

She had partial Saber training from Kanan when she held the Dark Sabre remember.

The Dark Saber training from Kanan explicitly showed her not having Force powers. Yes, there was considerable emotional energy tied up wit the Dark Saber, and going with that energy, but not Force powers. Particularly, she used Mandalorian tricks against Kanan (and later on against Gar Saxon) and didn't deflect blaster bolts with the saber.
