I'd say there was some of Perez' Diana in the DCAU in the early episodes where she was naive and inexperienced.

I don't know what you mean by mainstream audiences. Justice League was designed as a saturday morning cartoon, mostly for the typical 7 year old boys and to some degree girls. And only adults that liked superheroes specifically would watch that cartoon.
Wonder Woman was a movie watched by all kinds of demographics in great number.

What exactly do you think is the mature audience of Cartoon Network in the year 2001? It's clearly not "mainstream". Some adults watched the show, but they were a large minority. And the George Perez personality definitely isn't popular with 7 year olds.
I have, and the comparison doesn't really hold up.
Gadot's WW in her first movie was like a mix of Perez and Marston.
I definitely think the JLU show would have benefited immensely from using either Perez or Marston as templates, or a competent fusion of both, instead of the bland non-entity we got that doesn't stand for anything aside from being a grouchy straw feminist who crushes on Batman.
Given the types of shows that Cartoon Network played in their later hours, it was definitely not geared for the 7 year olds. I am not sure where you are coming up with that. And what do you classify as mainstream? How do you know that adults watching the show were a minority? If you have evidence, please share it since I think you are way off base on this.
I know cartoon network promoted it asa kids shows. What do you think was the target audience?
