Why does Clemson have to release anything about the findings? Is there a rule or regulation that forces them to release the information?

No. If anything, federal privacy laws are more likely to prohibit them from releasing any findings as opposed to mandating they release the findings.
Typical gamepock posters stacking up Ls.

It's against the rules to use the stuff. If you have nothing to hide and all is above board, cooperate.
They are taking the Fifth so to speak. I guess they can do this, but it isn't a good look. If they are prohibited from releasing the findings, say so.

It's complicated. A request can be made for the findings under the S.C. Freedom of Information Act, however, the school is claiming that the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act prevents them from releasing the information because the investigation is tied to their student-athletes failing a drug test (which is, I guess, a part of their student record).
It'd be interesting to see the outcome if someone sued the school to release the records under the SC FOIA, because it seems like Clemson would be required to release some information about their investigation.
ETA: A player who tested positive could also waive his rights under FERPA to have the information released related to his failing of the drug test. Now THAT would be interesting.
