I figured out that the test would still fail if I call the import in the
urls.less file. That way I don't need to figure out all the setup
required to test this bug.

Although IE8 does support data-uris, it only does so with a limit of 32KB. It's a silly limitation, but a source of potential bugs. When the limit is exceeded, the data-uri() function will simply return a normal url() value with a relative path to the asset.
One may pass --no-ie-compat to lessc to avoid this safeguard.
