In my searching, John would rather that you call me tomorrow is more correct. That is, it means that please, do not call me today.– HK LeeCommented Feb 12, 2020 at 8:19

Neither sentence is correct.
The usual construction after ** would rather that you** is did (or did not) call me tomorrow.
However, this depends on the context and construction of the sentence, as illustrated in the examples that you will find below:
