Will Mana Shield also be applied to spell damage?

Yes.
Real question, will mana shield still prevent damage even when you are on low mana?

If I had 500 mana, and took 1000 damage; Mana Shield Keystone would change that to: 700 damage to Life, 300 to Mana.

But what happens when I have 100 mana left, and take 1000 damage? Do I get 900 damage or still 700?

If the answer is 900, it will be useless unless you go all the way to EB.

Especially considering the only times you would need it would be the hits that would one shot you, which are above 2k damage anyway.

Mana shield works like energy shield that let's 70% damage bypass it.
So if you have no mana you take all 100% dmg.

It says "Taken from mana first" meaning that if you have mana it will come from that. But if you have 0 mana, all damage taken will be from your life/health pool.
I can't wait to use it.

I was hoping it would be a split regardless of current mana.

If it works like that (first from mana upto %30, then rest from life) it wont be the defense nod I have been expecting against one shot skills.

Life is still the only viable defense then,

Can anyone confirm this since the spell description does not sound to include spells.

What "spell" are you talking about?It's a keystone,a passive,and it's very clear in it's description,it says "damage".
