There's nothing you can really do about that. Google Pagespeed offers a filter that can theoretically do this, but it's been a bit finicky in my experience.

Also, please update the above cache control headers to the following (so cache headers are applied to Font Awesome font files as well),

# Cache-Control Headers
<ifModule mod_headers.c>
  <filesMatch ".(ico|jpe?g|png|gif|swf|css|js|woff2?)$">
    Header set Cache-Control "max-age=2592000, public"
  </filesMatch>
</ifModule>

As far as optimizing images, some of these tools have varying definitions of "optimize", re-compressing jpegs to lower quality settings is not "optimizing" as far as I'm concerned, it's just reducing quality. The quality setting you use for your websites lossy images is a matter of opinion and not a strict recommendation you need to adhere to, though there's generally not much benefit compressing images at a quality setting above 90.

Actual image optimization that does not involve re-compressing images includes stripping metadata from jpeg images and utilizing tools such as OptiPNG to re-compress lossless PNG's (which can potentially significantly reduce the filesize of some images). However, if you don't have shell access to your server (or you don't know how to safely utilize the command line) this also isn't really an option for you.
