So does a new hire FO that's eligible for direct entry captain still get all those bonuses plus the $145/hr? All of these bonus and pay programs are a bit confusing... What is the training pay now and what can a new hire who has previous 121 expect?

1st yr FO pay / 64hrs a month. Until finish training. Then you’d upgrade to the $145.

That's when we got that LOA about CA pay at award vs end of OE.

Are you forced to upgrade if you have the hours as a new hire or can you fly as an FO for a few months to gain some experience?

There are CURRENTLY no forced upgrades. Check back in about three weeks when the results of the next (should be announced in the next week or two) bid closes. There is currently a standing vacancy for 145 ORD Captain which means you MAY bid for that if you have the qualifying hours. Probably not a good idea with the fleet shrinking.
