I don't think they'll force a specific API, but the DMA forces messaging companies to interoperate and I wouldn't think Twitter would be exempted.
I wouldn't be surprised if the EU would force Twitter to interoperate with ActivityPub if they go so far as to disable API access. The EU already has their own Mastodon server so some people already have knowledge of the possibilities of decentralised social media and they also have a huge anti-big-tech stance.
