It says otherwise here [1]:
Studio 1.2.5001 - Ubuntu 18/Debian 10 (64-bit)
and here [2]:
Supported branches:
Debian buster (stable)

Again, dpkg disagrees with you:
$ dpkg -I /tmp/rstudio-1.2.5001-amd64.deb | grep Dep
Depends: libedit2, libssl1.0.0 | libssl1.0.2 | libssl1.1, libclang-dev, libxkbcommon-x11-0, libc6 (>= 2.7)

I suggest you to update your RStudio package and to forget about
libssl1.0.
