There is no margin call. That is absurd. Elon’s cost basis for his shares is $0. A margin call is when you own 1000 shares of stock but only have enough money to buy 100 shares. Your brokerage loans you money to cover the balance. If the overall value of the holding falls (as Tesla is now) the brokerage would demand more cash in your margin account to cover the losses. Elon has no losses as his stock holding value has dropped but none of his holdings are on margin.

There is also a large thought that Elon could re-negotiate the price of the transaction. Market has dropped 15-20% and if Twtr didnt have the elon backstop it would probably drop to about 50% of its current value. Part of the reason its trading $45 instead of $54.

I personally don't think Elon give a fuck and will get the deal done at $54. He wants to own Twtr that bad.
