This thread is resolved. Here is a description of the problem and solution.

Problem:
The site moved notice appeared after pushing changes from staging to live and the client was unsure which option to select.

Solution:
To be able to use your original dev site and the new location, log in to the dev site and you’ll find a notification about your site moving to a new location that lets you mark the dev site as a copy.

After that, please follow the below steps to register the live site with a new key:

1. log in to the live site
2- Go to Plugins-> Add new-> Commercial tab
3- Click on "Unregister WPML from this site"
4- Click on "Register WPML"
5- Click on "Get a key for this site"
6- Create a new production key
7- Use it to register again in Plugins-> Add new-> Commercial tab
