Since your date format is sortable you could calculate the 24hour time using perl and then use a simple nawk script like this:

24hr.pl
Code:
#!/bin/perl
use POSIX; print strftime('%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S', localtime(time() - 24*60*60));

Then use this (24hr.pl executable and in current directory):
Code:
FROM=`./24hr.pl`
awk "\$0 > \"$FROM\"" infile
