When you change the document from 30 fps to 24 fps, the document settings has a Scale Spans checkbox. If you check that, the timing of the animation is altered so that what used to take one second at 30 fps will still take one second at 24 fps. That should help.

What Colin has suggested may or may not be helpful, depending on the file structure and how things are nested.

If this animation is for video, the best you can do is to resample the output in a video editor, reimporting the audio track and matching it to the new frame rate.

Frame rate changes other than multiples like 25 to 50 and 24 to 12 are a nightmare to deal with, and that is why specs have to be clear from the very beginning.
