My answer would be E.
More X than Y is the correct idiom.
More X as Y is incorrect. Hence, A, B & C are out ("more important as" is incorrect).
Universal facts are generally presented in the simple present tense. D. uses the simple past tense, hence out.
Leaves us with the only answer choice E. which uses the simple present tense.

OFFICIAL EXPLANATION
Answer: E.
The sentence as written contains an idiom error. The appropriate construction is either “as important as,” or “more important than.” Choices A, B, and C all contain this idiom error. Choice D changes the tense of the verb.
