Is my Ant Plant dead?

I can't find much information on my ant plant so I thought I would ask here to see who has experience growing these plants. My greenhouse got down to the low 30s this winter in southern California. I thought this plant was hardier than it is showing. I have since installed a heater on a timer that doesn't allow my greenhouse to drop below 55 degrees. Anyways, do you think this plant still had a chance?

Hard to say for sure. Doesn't look like it has suffered tissue collapse of the caudex which is good. Is the caudex still hard? If soft n squishy, its dead.

Considering its tropical, I wouldn't expect it to handle temps in the 30s very well.
