The posture described is an offensive display, as it is a nonverbal signal indicating that the person's personal space is being invaded and they are not comfortable with it. The foot out front and crossed arms form a physical barrier, and the defensive posture signals that the person is ready to defend their territory if necessary. Tenure, expulsion, and markers are all forms of territorial defense, but they do not apply to the scenario described.
