I'm curious about this as well. Methinks the APA is not aware of the
accessibility standards out there, or perhaps they think people are still
publishing "on paper."

I did find the APA Style Blog and they show both embedded and non-embedded
links as examples. I you cannot get an answer here, you may want to head
over there and contact them.

PS: Something else to consider; the transient nature of URLs. How many times
have you found your citations have become dead links....?
