The verb "to be" does not take the accusative. It takes a nominative on both
sides: the second "who" is not the object of the verb, but a complement.
Therefore the phrase should be "Who is Who?". This is the same reason that one
would use "It is I" in formal writing instead of "It is me".
See for instance:

These people, publishers of the preeminent biographical dictionary for over a
hundred years, have not got it wrong:
