After hours trying to solve this problem, my DEFINITIVE solution that worked fine (without touch the files inside platforms), was:

1º - run cordova platform remove android

2º - Added this line in my config.xml inside the tag <platform name="android"> <resource-file src="resources/android/icon/drawable-xxxhdpi-icon.png" target="app/src/main/res/mipmap/icon.png" />

3º - Update the plugin settings inside config.xml

<plugin name="@mauron85/cordova-plugin-background-geolocation" spec="3.1.0">
   <variable name="GOOGLE_PLAY_SERVICES_VERSION" value="11+" />
   <variable name="ANDROID_SUPPORT_LIBRARY_VERSION" value="26+" />
   <variable name="ICON" value="@mipmap/icon" />
   <variable name="SMALL_ICON" value="@mipmap/icon" />
   <variable name="ALWAYS_USAGE_DESCRIPTION" value="App requires background tracking " />
   <variable name="MOTION_USAGE_DESCRIPTION" value="App requires motion detection" />
</plugin>

4º - Configure my package.json

// package.json
  {
    "cordova": {
      "plugins": {
      "@mauron85/cordova-plugin-background-geolocation": {
        "GOOGLE_PLAY_SERVICES_VERSION": "11+",
        "ANDROID_SUPPORT_LIBRARY_VERSION": "26+",
        "ICON": "@mipmap/icon",
        "SMALL_ICON": "@mipmap/icon",
        "ACCOUNT_NAME": "@string/app_name",
        "ACCOUNT_LABEL": "@string/app_name",
        "ACCOUNT_TYPE": "$PACKAGE_NAME.account",
        "CONTENT_AUTHORITY": "$PACKAGE_NAME"
      },
      },
    },
  }

5º - Last step run cordova platform add android
