Why couldn't California be admitted to the US under the terms of The Missouri Compromise?

The Missouri Compromise only related to the territories acquired from France under the Louisiana Purchase.
California was acquired much later, from Mexico.
A few years later, it was proposed that the line of the Missouri Compromise should extend all the way to the Pacific. But if California had to remain as a single state, it was simply too big to fit the system. (If it had been admitted as two states - North and South California - war might have been avoided.)
