"U.S. radio and television broadcast stations must provide an equivalent opportunity to any opposing political candidates who request it."

I'm reading that CNN is hosting this rally. Why would this not apply?

Where are you reading that CNN is hosting it? Here's a story on it by CNN:

No mention that CNN intends to broadcast it, let alone "host" it.
