I don't think so. The logo was contributed by jimmac and originally
under CC. See https://bugs.launchpad.net/inkscape/+bug/345778

I'm unsure about this. I remember an old thread on -project where it
was found that clause 4b of CC-BY-SA 2.0 allows upgrading to later
version, and several packages already fit in that case.
I think we are in the same case.

Moreover, I can still get in touch with jimmac and ask for a license
change, or just apply clause 4b upstream.

Cheers, Luca
