That WMSC press release suggested that the rearview visibility would only be improved for GTE cars, whereas the ACO article states that the rules apply to all cars except LMP1.

Personally I find it strange that the LMP1 will not get the bigger and electronically adjustable rearview mirrors. The majority of the incidents this year has been caused by Audi drivers

BTW Audi will be happy that they keep their bright LED headlights because the rearview mirrors of slower cars must be "equipped with a night mode".
