This is the hardest question to answer. All of the remedies mentioned could possibly cure wheel hop. Honestly you will never know until you try.
IMO, this is your car so you know it best. Take a look at some of the bushings and there condition.
SHOCKS!! If you still have the stock deCarbons, chances are they are on there way out. If they are weak (actually they suck from day one) they will do nothing to control the rear.

Lower control arm relocation brackets eliminated mine. Beefier LCA's really stuck it to the ground. I have no hop at my power levels even while roasting the tires at speed, still on stock torque arm too.
Get LCA brackets and go from there.

Don't use poly-poly LCAs. There are other threads on this, but use either 1LE rubber or poly-rod or rubber-rod. Don't use rod-rod or poly-poly. (Rod-rod is actually good, but they wear too quick for a lot of people that use them on a DD)

Are you saying not to use LCAs with poly bushings on both ends? If so can you explain why? I'd do a search but yea the search blows lately...

Go to the suspension section. Here's one of the bigger LCA threads there: https://ls1tech.com/forums/suspensio...trol-arms.html
