if the rate has not increased, and if it is not an advance purchase rate and it can be canceled with no penalty I would book the room again, and then cancel the existing reservation.

Or ask Hyatt to resend your booking confirmation (after you make Diamond status). On the booking confirmation it will have your name followed with your status (Platinum or Diamond). If it says Diamond you should be fine. If it says Platinum, just let the hotel know when you check-in because the hotel might not know that you are a Diamond.
