Let us take this short route to solve this question. Look at the construction:
Although he is X, he is also Y, and (therefore) he will not do Z. The part after the conjunction 'and' should be one that he himself does. Therefore, we can safely remove, e A, B and E. Between C and D, we can simply kick out D for using 'being' as a modifier. C remains.

Active or passive comparison works between two sentences that have same intended meaning. Here, C is changing the meaning of original sentence. I can't say which one is the intended meaning of the sentence.
I don't think, in any of GMAT questions, either of the potentially correct options can change the actual meaning of actual sentence, although best option makes it more explicit in meaning and grammatically correct besides removing any redundant word.
I have seen so many 1000-series questions with disputed answers that I am loosing my trust from these questions.
