How to make this configuration file work with use-package with regard to AucTeX, RefTeX and LaTeX. I usually write latex rahter than pure tex documents.

Issues
When I open any .tex file it is no longer recognized by AucTeX, and no font-locking is there.
After some googling around, I found handful of Emacs dot file setups, but the variety of setups left me clueless as what to do in order to get my LaTeX configuration adjusted after use-package verse given the complexity of the different components and use cases (tex, latex, auctex, reftex, etc).
So given my working current configuration above, how should it be adjusted to fit the use-package verse?
Note
- Other packages were working as expected with
use-package, issues so far only with latex - GNU Emacs 25.2.2 (x86_64-pc-linux-gnu, GTK+ Version 3.18.9) of 2017-05-06
use-packageversion: 20170710.1234
