You should be able to filter on your date column as well and only return the items where the date is greater than today.
Create a New Flow with a Manual Trigger. You can replace this later with a recurrence trigger.
Get Today's Date
Add a Convert time zone action to your flow. Whenever you are using dates and times in your flow—it's best practice to use a Convert Time Zone action. In the base time field, insert the utcNow() expression.
Source Time Zone: Coordinated Universal Time
Destination Time Zone: Local Time Zone
Format String: Round Trip
Get Items Filter Query
Adjust your filter to include filtering out items where the due date column (in my case it's date) is lt (less than) the converted time. If you'd like to include items with today's date—you can use the le (less than or equal to) operator.
You will need to use the internal column name of your due date column. Keep in mind that the internal column name may not always match the name displayed in your Sharepoint list. If you aren’t sure how to get this, please refer to this section of one of my YT tutorials.
Ensure you have single quotes around the Converted time dynamic content.
Just test out this first filter query—you can adjust the filter query after you've run a test.
Return a Count of Items
Whenever I use a Filter Query in a Get Items action, I always like to return the count of items returned in a Compose action. This is helpful when building a flow and can also be used to troubleshoot your flow.
Insert a Compose action. Add an Expression. Use the length() function.
Select the Dynamic content tab and insert the value dynamic content from the Get Items action into the length() function.
Run a test. Verify the number of items returned are those where the due date has already passed.
Adjust your Filter Query
I would recommend you add each argument to your Filter Query and run a test. Use the Compose action to verify that the number returned is what you are expecting. This way you can identify which part of your query is incorrect or needs adjusting.
It looks like you are running additional condition checks in your original flow to see if the status is not equal to 'Closed' (I don't believe this is necessary since you are already using that argument in your filter query. However, I would add the additional condition to check if it's not equal to 'Escalated to Microsoft'.
Condition Check
Your condition check should be used to check if there are any items to update. In the first value field, insert the output from the Compose action above. Change the operator to is not equal to. In the second value field enter a 0.
Put your Update Item action into the Yes branch.
