I would be surprised if it didn’t get root rot. The moss is known to hold water. Cactus hate water at their roots.

I would reduce the pot size to a pot just wide and deep enough to hold the roots. Google cactus or succulents to see the standard size pots nurseries keep them in  
unless you are experimenting to see the effects of the extra large size and potting mix. I’m not sure. 🍀🪴
