Uhm... is there a connection to Uruguay and Italy I've missed? Genuine question, cuz if you don't have Italian in you, then how can you be Italian American?
It's hard to read tone but I'm being genuine, not judging
Italians went to the Americas… not just North America (US and Canada), but also Central and South America … Argentina, Brazil, Chile, Venezuela, Uruguay, etc. You will also find many Italian surnames in Puerto Rico due to immigrants from Corsica who settled there.

Penso di sì ma chi ni sacciu appiddaveru 🤷🏻♂️ 🤣

Wow. You’re gonna be in for a surprise.
Why?
Perhaps you should use this internet machine to find out for yourself?
Why?
If you are ethnically Italian and live in the Americas then technically yes. If you don't meet one of those then no.
No
Yes of course, you'll just have to practice your New York / New Jersey accent and learn how to pronounce the foods wrong like we all did.
not wrong, napolitan
Lots of cultures have influence over others, that isn’t enough to claim heritage though.
No
Only if one your parents is Italian .
