"face up" is the opposite of "lowering your head".

It is illegal now. That's what all the debate is over. It's still leading with your helmet rather it's face up or face down. The rule isn't lowering your head. It's leading with your helmet.

Either way the growing conclusion is it's going to be too hard to officiate fairly, and discussions will continue over the next couple months.
