You don't have to rebuild everything, but there's no getting around reinstalling all the ports that currently have +universal, if you want them to not be universal. They may or may not have to be built depending on binary availability. The command to do that would be:

sudo port upgrade --enforce-variants installed -universal

If you want to disable universal altogether in your MacPorts installation, set universal_archs to an empty value in macports.conf. Note that this will make it impossible to install some ports that don't support your configured build_arch.
