In the tv series Madoka found out what she need/wanted to do and resolved both the series' conflict and her own internal conflict. Homura on the other hand didn't achieve anything. Her efforts weren't pointless, since she made it possible for Madoka to achieve her goals. But that means Homura was just a plot devices to Madoka's journey. As a character of her own, she truly didn't achieve anything at all...
The movie is the prefect opportunity to close her story. She already has a stated goal: to protect Madoka's world. The movie can cover that without retconing anything, but to bring Madoka back into the game they would need to undone what the story already covered.
Unlike Madoka's story, Homura's is still open.
