Keynes was a flagrant homosexual who recorded his sexual exploits in considerable detail. Did he get chemically castrated? Of course not! He had power and international recognition in his own time.
Aside from minor details, things haven't substantially improved since then. Whether it's tax audits or drug laws or HR rules or pedo rings, the enforcement and punishment regimes are gentle on the powerful and harsh on the weak.
Rather than cjing over some feel-good apology to a dead man, a better way to honor Alan Turing would be to strong-arm the powers that be into impartial justice for a change--three-strikes a celebrity for drug charges, audit the shit out of an oligarch, put an Epstein in actual prison for a while.
That would be something to be proud of.
