There is a crazy glue solvent, though I don’t know what it is. It might do further damage to the leather, though.
Edit: good call, LMS. A quick google search came up with the following from Crazy Glue’s website…

How do I remove Krazy Glue from my counter tops?
Krazy Glue can be removed with acetone. Acetone is the key ingredient in most nail polish removers. You can also find acetone at your local hardware or paint store. Apply the solvent to a paper towel and place it on the stain until the glue has softened. The softened glue can then be removed with a clean dry towel. Always test the solvent on an inconspicuous area first to check for discoloration or compatibility issues.

I have found acetone is great for removing paint from car panels, such as minor bingle scrapes and overspray. Wipes the paint off real easy and clean with a little on a microfibre cloth and doesn't damage the clear coat.
BUT I have also found it is very bad for plastics (such as light fittings), it makes them cloudy and seems to partly dissolve them.
So I suspect it will be no good on the seats of an F-Type, yes it will probably remove the crazy glue but it will probably also dissolve the polyurethane coating on the seat and make a helluva mess.
Best to test it first on a small inconspicuous area.

I would learn to like it the way it now is.
I am afraid that no matter what you do, you will only make it (much) worse.
The leather surface will be damaged badly by any solvent likely to dissolve crazy glue.

All Fear the Kragle!!!

More seriously, I too would be very wary of using Acetone on leather.
Instead, I'd show either a detailer or auto upholstery shop...someone who can fix any discoloration resulting from cleaning.

Find a cow and test it out.
Seriously, if it bothered me a lot, I would find an inconspicuous area to test. Maybe under the seat or the crease where the seatback meets the lower seat.
But honestly, the chemicals in the glue probably reacted with the leather and the damage is already done. Good luck.
