Nagato with the rinnegan couldn't even distinct a rasenshuriken transformed into a shadow clone. Neji with the byakugan stated himself that he couldn't distinct them. Except for Madara for some reason, no other sharingan user could distinct them, including Sasuke who got tricked by Naruto shadow clones even during their final battle.

Because those weren’t initially Nagato’s eyes. They’re Madara’s and as for Sasuke, maybe he spent too much time apart from anyone who actually used the shadow clone Justu to study it enough while he was with his little gang. Either that or Madara is just a prodigy.
