Not exactly.
You never could play the same action modifier twice on an action,
that has always been in the rules.
NRA prohibits taking the same action twice, where the same action is
any of the following:
Action by card in play: one Haven Uncovered, one Smiling Jack, one Powerbase.
Action by card name: Govern the Unaligned, Fifth Tradition, Temptation.
Action by type: bleed, hunt, equip, employ retainer, recruit ally,
political action, leave torpor, rescue a vampire from torpor, or
diablerize a vampire in torpor.
So, you could attack a vampire with Bum's Rush, Untap, attack a vampire
with Ambush, Untap, attack a vampire with Haven Uncovered, Untap, attack
a vampire through a different copy of Haven Uncovered, Untap, attack
a vampire through an inherent ability (Wynn, Amelia), Untap, attack a vampire
through BloodHunt, Untap, attack a vampire through a different BloodHunt card,
Untap, attack a vampire through War Party, Untap, attack a vampire through
a different War Party. Notice that you could have attacked the same vampire
in each instance, nothing is prohibiting that.
Any card that lets you Bleed, will prohibit you from bleeding with any other
card or from bleeding without a card again that turn. It also prohibits
you from using any other effects that card may have at different discipline
levels. For example: Slaughtering the Herd.
Bleed with Slaughtering the Herd, Untap. You cannot bleed with that minion
again this turn. You may not use the superior of Slaughtering the Herd
either.

Reacting has nothing to do with taking actions.
You may have one vampire untap and block every action
taken by every minion on the table if your cards permit it.

Freak Drive is an action modifier. You may play one per action.
You may play one on each action. You can play Freak Drive as
many times per turn as you have different actions and blood.
If you are acting out-of-turn, with Madness Network for example,
you are still held by the NRA rule. On each player's turn, you
may only bleed with the vampire once, hunt once, and so on and so forth.
You can bleed and untap on each player's turn though.
The Clan Impersonated Malkavian Masika may take a bleed action at the
end of each Methuselah's minion phase as long as he remembers to untap
between each turn.
