This is verified fixed using Firefox 83.0b4 (BuilId:20201025174155) and Firefox esr 78.5 (provided in comment 6) on Windows 10 64bit, macOS 10.15 and Ubuntu 20.04.

Setting the DisableTelemetry policy successfully disables the about:telemetry page and locks the following prefs to false:
datareporting.healthreport.uploadEnabled
datareporting.policy.dataSubmissionEnabled
toolkit.telemetry.archive.enabled
