I'm not entirely sure why but the code for it is commented out on Acid Fog. Looks like it was intentionally disabled for Acid Fog.

It was intentionally left out for all over time spells.

I couldn't find any patch note or explanation on dev side for why, but the code files do have it commented out as if it was on purpose. I'm guessing Valefort/QC or someone decided it should be this way at some point?

It was decided to be too powerful for the server when they were implementing the class.

Except that Acid Fog is the only cloud spell it doesn't work for, tentacles can be shaped, deathcloud, stinking cloud, wall of fire...etc. All can be shaped.

Yeah, the cloud spells were changed to work properly with the feat. And it's the only cloud feat that doesn't work. Dalo said on discord that it was "probably an oversight while [they were] expanding Mastery of Shaping to all AoE spells".
