It was never "not accepted". An Act of Contrition is any prayer in which you express your sorrow for sin: Psalm 50 (51) the Miserere in the book of Psalms is an Act of Contrition that was around for hundreds of years before Jesus Christ started the Church. The early Christian writers like St. Augustine and St. Chrysostom both write about making an Act of Contrition.
