You cannot extend the TCA of sys_file_reference via a Flux element, and that's what you would need to do in order to render those fields associated with each individual reference. Flux can do a lot of things, but it cannot do things that TYPO3 doesn't support and this would be one such thing (it's essentially the same as doing this via a standard FlexForm field).

The alternative, as Oleg hints to, would be to create sections with objects inside and define one non-IRRE field with a file reference and X number of additional fields. I don't recommend this solution as file relations from FlexForms are notoriously error prone when combined with section objects (due to the problem determining a true ID for the origin side of the relation, which then becomes too broadly associated with the entire FlexForm field instead of the individual section objects).

Even so: you already have the fields you need as actual TCA fields on sys_file (on earlier versions of TYPO3 this requires EXT:filemetadata to be installed). I strongly suggest you use those fields and if you need additional ones, extend the TCA of the sys_file_reference table to include whichever fields you like.
