It is too expensive. The ferry companies hike their prices. The ACO have also made it a lot more expensive for the marshals with the moving of Pre Qual to two weeks before the race. It means that if marshals want to both it is either two trips paying through the nose for ferries or a long holiday. Plus there is the politics. I marshalled at Le Mans 5 times (1998-2002). It is cheaper to go to a NASCAR race in the US than to do Le Mans as a marshal
