Question

A federal tax extension was timely filed by 7/15/2020 with the IRS. How do I updated the filing instructions due date from 7/15 to 10/15?

You don't need to.  If you sent in an extension 4868 and it was accepted, the IRS knows you have an extension.  You do not send in the filing instructions.  They are just for you.

you can't change the date because taxes are due on July 15 even if you asked for an extension of time to file.
