Another team or two from the ACC will not bump the TV contract with Disney, Inc enough to warrant an invite to any of them. People are also overlooking the contract the ACC has with its' members, you know the thing they all signed.
None of those folks re exactly free agents now or in the future.
When a TV network has a contract with a conference there is a limited number of time slots to broadcast games. The SEC already has an attractive cast of teams. What can Clem, UNC, VT or FSU add to that??

They don't have to just add value. Additional teams have to add proportionally more value to the regular season take home and the postseason take home.
If the projected take home per team is 100 million for sixteen teams? That 1.6 billion annual revenue has to balloon to over 2.4 billion for 24 teams to just break even.
Is there really 100 million in annual value for each (any) of the proposed expansion teams? Probably Notre Dame but that's it.
