The fact that it worked however says that the org-article class is
the culprit.

Why were you using org-article in the first place? Was it supposed to
help with the font choices? Bear in mind that I know nothing about
org-article.

So you have a choice to make: either fix org-article and continue using
it or throw it away and find some other way to do what you want.

For example, all you have to do to get Times is

#+LATEX_HEADER: \usepackage{times}

Getting finer control should also be possible using basic latex
techniques. Whether that's a "better" way to go is of course
debatable: it depends on a lot of variables.
