Have you tried the contributed module org-exp-bibtex.el? It is not a
self-contained org-mode module, in that it relies on bibtex2html and an
external bibtex file, but it does enable bibliographical export to html.

One way to accommodate acronyms would be to create a new link type:
(org-add-link-type
"acro" nil
(lambda (path desc format)
(cond
((eq format 'latex)
(format "\\acro{%s}{%s}" path desc))
((eq format 'html)
(format "<acronym title=\"%s\">%s</acronym>" desc path)))))
A link such as...
[[acro:DNS][Domain Name System]]
...would then export to latex as...
\acro{DNS}{Domain Name System}
...and to html as...
<acronym title="Domain Name System">DNS</acronym>
Having never used acronyms in LaTeX or html before, I have no idea
whether the above syntax is correct. The point is simply to offer a
proof of concept.
Best,
