So what is the answer? Can Bob’s late measurement affected Alice’s earlier?

Nobody knows the answer. At least one QM interpretation, retrocausality, allows later measurements to affect earlier ones. Nobody has found a way to experimentally test one QM interpretation vs. another, so as far as anyone knows retrocausality is still a possibility, at least in principle.

I know you would like there to be a definitive answer, but as has already been pointed out several times, this is one of those cases where we don't have one at our current state of knowledge.
