If you look at media_handle_sideload in source, you can see how it works.
The function that generates the various sizes is within wp_generate_attachment_metadata, the image_make_intermediate_size function.
You could possibly use the wp_handle_sideload function instead and manually resize it via image_make_intermediate_size.
