So I've heard from different people that soldiers can now be flagged for hight and weight and possibly failing the new pt test. I've searched everywhere for the documents supporting this but is this really true?

Soldiers have always been required to pass height and weight, there was never any exceptions due to COVID.
APFT is gone, only people who have a failing APFT are required to pass one. No one has to pass the ACFT until March 2022

H/W flagging is unchanged. The Army Directive was only for APFT / ACFT.
ARMY DIRECTIVE 2020-06, ARMY COMBAT FITNESS TEST, 12 JUNE 2020. This directive establishes the Army Combat Fitness Test (ACFT) as the Army’s physical fitness test of record, replacing the Army Physical Fitness Test (APFT). The ACFT replaces the APFT as the Army’s physical fitness test of record beginning 1 October 2020. The Army will no longer conduct the APFT after 30 September 2020. The only exception is articulated in AR 350–1, paragraph F–5k, for Soldiers who failed their last record APFT. https://www.milsuite.mil/book/docs/DOC-824747
