Typically, it is tough to visualise the contrast in sensor measurements merely by researching specifications. The visual below will help give you a more clear sense of the sensor sizing in the 90D and S930.

To sum up, each of these cameras feature different resolutions and different sensor measurements. The 90D having a larger sensor will make achieving shallower DOF easier and the Canon 90D will render more detail with its extra 23MP. Greater resolution can also allow you to crop pics way more aggressively. The fresher 90D is going to have a benefit in sensor innovation.
