Not sure if I'd go as far as to say "Gaetz exonerated."
He made a claim that someone was extorting him.
AFAICT, there's no exoneration about the sex-trafficing allegations for which he's being investigated.

Revived Matt Gaetz probe
https://www.cnn.com/2023/07/13/politics/matt-gaetz-house-ethics-committee-investigation/index.html
Investigators from the House Ethics Committee have begun reaching out to witnesses as part of a recently revived investigation into Rep. Matt Gaetz of Florida, focused on allegations that he may have engaged in sexual misconduct, illicit drug use or other misconduct.
At least one witness in Florida told CNN they have spoken to investigators about the Republican congressman in recent weeks about alleged lobbying violations, and sources familiar with the Ethics Committee probe say other witnesses also have been contacted.
A source familiar with the House panel’s work told CNN that the Justice Department’s decision not to bring charges against Gaetz does not impact what the committee will and won’t investigate. The committee plans to examine the same allegations they were looking into when they opened the investigation in 2021, the source told CNN.
The Ethics Committee, which at the time was controlled by Democrats, originally opened an investigation in 2021, publicly announcing that they were examining a range of allegations including that Gaetz violated sex trafficking laws, shared inappropriate images or videos on the House floor, converted campaign funds to personal use and accepted a bribe, among other claims.
Gaetz has repeatedly denied any wrongdoing.
Gaetz told CNN on Thursday, the investigation is “not something I’m worried about, I’m focused on the work.”

Looks like a repeat of what you posted six months before George.
Investigators with the House Ethics Committee appear to be taking a deeper look at the now closed federal probe into the conduct of Rep. Matt Gaetz, Republican of Florida, and have in recent weeks reached out to witnesses and the Justice Department for information, according to multiple sources familiar with the recent developments. At least one witness has sat for an interview, one of the sources said.
