GnuCash's localization is limited to the way it works on Linux, which is the old POSIX locales method. Customizing in System Preferences doesn't work; GnuCash looks for a locale to use. The best you can do is edit Gnucash.app/Contents/Resources/etc/gnucash/environment and add LC_NUMERIC=en_US and LC_TIME=en_US to set those particular localizations to locales that present numbers and dates the way you like.
