Does a blanking plate need any support at the rear of the rack?

No. It is a shallow front-mounted panel, not a shelf or piece of equipment extending into the cabinet.

The rack ears provide the mounting it needs.

Adding rear support would be an impressively elaborate solution to a problem the plate simply does not have.
