I am getting this email after upload my binary with Xcode Version 6.0.1 (6A317)
Your binary is not optimized for iPhone 5 – – New iPhone apps and app
updates submitted must support the 4-inch display on iPhone 5 and must
include a launch image referenced in the Info.plist under
UILaunchImages with a UILaunchImageSize value set to {320, 568}.
Launch images must be PNG files and located at the top-level of your
bundle, or provided within each .lproj folder if you localize your
launch images. Learn more about iPhone 5 support and app launch images

We faced the same issue and couldn't solve it after trying many solutions, we believe it's a kind of bug in App submission. But we found a workaround which can keep launch images localized and pass the submission verification.
Environment:
Xcode 6.1 (6A1052c) with iOS 8.1 SDK
Precondition:
Have following properties in your "*-info.plist" file.
Steps:
Go to your target's settings and in our standard scenario (localize launch images, which uses "UILaunchImages" in "*-info.plist" but not image assets), it should look like the image
Change the setting to use image assets (Note: after this step, Xcode will automatically REMOVE the "UILaunchImages" properties in your *-info.plist file. So please BACKUP the properties first.)
Go to the "LaunchImage" assets (can click the arrow button on the right) and fill with images from one of your *.lproj folder.
Now, go to the "LaunchImage" folder which contains images and "Contents.json" file.
Remove ALL the launch IMAGES just added, but keep the "Contents.json" (and it's content) file.
Check the "Contents.json", it should contains properties like image below
Double check following items:
Localized launch images in resource folders (en.lproj, ja.lproj, etc.)
*-info.plist contains "UILaunchImages" properties
Project setting uses image asset for launch images
"Contents.json" in "LaunchImage" asset folder, and the folder DOES NOT really have launch images
Now you can have a try for localized launch images and submit the binary to iTunes Connect. In our App, the workaround did work for "localized launch images" and "submission successful".
It should be a trick for avoiding the bug in submission checking.
Since the workaround above doesn't change any resource, except making the checking thinks we use image assets, we are more convinced that there are some bugs in Apple's checking.
Cheers!
