I had no idea about those tweets until he was asked to host the oscars
I agree with Ellen that he shouldn’t step down but step up. Nick Cannon also had a history of homophobic remarks but he is now a strong lgbt ally. At this point, simple apologies are not enough for Hart, he should show his support through action, e.g. contribute to trevor project. In any case, when Hart said he was gonna decline the offer to host the oscars, it felt to me that he is not willing to let go of his views.
