But I don't have time to look into it at the moment. Actually, the reason is that regexp matching a macro is: "\\\\[a-zA-Z]+\\*?\\(\\(\\[[^][\n{}]*\\]\\)\\|\\({[^{}\n]*}\\)\\)*" IOW, brackets (even escaped) are not allowed in the arguments of a LaTeX macro. So the first \IEEEAuthorBlockN is correctly recognized but \IEEEauthorblockA fails. This is not optimal, but I think it is sufficient, since, again, Org handles only simple raw LaTeX syntax.
