Push Photography
When pushing a 50 speed film 1 stop will the grain quality still develop clearer than shooting 100 speed at the correct ISO?

Depends on what film you're talking about.

Let's say Fuji Velvia pushed 1 stop vs. Fuji Provia shot normal.

If grain is you only consideration then in that instance I would shoot the Provia. It's going to have a better grain structure vs Velvia no matter what you do. The reasons for pushing film go beyond just gaining an extra stop or two. In the old day when I shot a lot of Velvia I would push it usually to boost saturation and contrast. I would do this when I was shooting under low contrast light.
