Those claims were dropped because they were wishful thinking and didn’t stand up to even the slightest scrutiny. The non-expert who made those claims caused the author of the tool he misinterpreted to write an entire blog post about it:

The other key thing to understand is that Georgia had a full hand recount of the paper ballots which those machines tabulated. Even if they were completely hacked, they couldn’t rewrite the paper records and there’s no credible evidence of even a single ballot being changed much less the many thousands of them which would have been needed to make the electronic and hand counts match.
