Acupuncture doesn't "fix" anything.  Our bodies heal themselves.  Acupuncture brings the body back into its normal balance so it heal itself.  With an earache, it depends on the cause of the earache.  If it's an infection, the answer is "No."  Antibiotics may be needed. If it's because of something like altitude, stopping up sinuses, swimming,  acupuncture can indeed help.

Acupuncture combined with herbs, and sometimes massage, can relieve and fix your earache gradually.
Acupuncture can help with ear pain, but if you may also need herbs and/or prescription drugs to handle whatever is causing it.
It depends on what's causing the earache. Your first stop should be an ENT to rule out infection and to see if the cause of the problem can be determined.

If the ache is due to nerve entrapment or muscle tension then acupuncture can be a very good choice for treatment.
