I submitted my apps but realized that on one of my personal statements, I included the name of a journal without italicizing it. What should I do? Is this worth worrying over? Should I ask them if I can send in an updated copy of my PS?

no
you shouldnt
if it were bigger than that, then yes-- but resubmitting would show an error in judgment, and point out something they might not have otherwise noticed.
I forgot to double space and emailed addendum... I HATE that I did that, but it isn't better to resubmit.

[Ragged]

Autoreject.

So do you think I should just not do/say anything, cross my fingers and hope that it'll be okay?

In my current unstable state I'm unable to tell whether this is facetious or not. please tell me you're kidding ragged

Unitalicized journal names screams ignorance to the adcomms. It's exactly the type of a mistake that lets them know you are not law school material. I hope you applied outside of T-14.

To be fair, you have a decent shot at Cornell, but don't expect any money.
