Algeria winger Feghouli was dismissed after 15 minutes at London Stadium as referee Mike Dean adjudged his tackle on United defender Phil Jones to constitute serious foul play.
The 27-year-old was facing a three-match, but West Ham appealed against the punishment to the Football Association (FA) and Feghouli will now be eligible for Friday's FA Cup third-round tie at home to Manchester City.
