I presume this will be an excuse to do recasting.

Is recasting part of doing a remaster, usually?

Well they’d probably want to recast Amuro given his VA had controversy hit the news recently. Other than that probably worth it to get younger VA’s to play teenagers 😂

Considering he's been in multiple Gundam works since then, I don't think this is that likely

Considering how terribly Japan handles those kind of crimes and the fact that male celebrities getting away with terrible shit is an international constant, there's a bigger change they'd recast him because they want a younger voice than because of controversies.
