It would take a ton of work, especially for a show as long-running as The Simpsons. The original materials probably aren't even available anymore.

I believe the reason they were able to remaster lots of old Japanese anime OVAs in HD is because the animation was recorded to film first. I wouldn't be surprised if the Simpsons just used videotape instead.
