My response to this is: why should anyone care? Write a book about whatever you want. If people want a “more authentic rendition” then read the story by the Mexican American immigrant author. If the white author has a flair to the story you enjoy, then read that. There can be annoyance and criticism as well of course. The author shouldn’t be “punished” by institutions though. Simply don’t buy the book.
