Can those yellows be overturned so they are eligible for the final?
No, the cards can't be overturned. A lot of the times Refs will give out yellows depending on players reactions to calls. Like a ball getting kicked out of anger or a player's insult to a ref. I don't know what Ivanovic might have yelled at the ref but a simple warning should have been sufficient. I think the yellow in that case might have been a bit harsh.
