Kind of a misleading graphic. 25 of those rows on the right look awfully similar to each other, so without having played the Beta myself it looks like each of those are really the same skill but with progressions in power. Seems cheap to count them all as individual.

30 total skills on the left, and if you count each of those similar rows on the right as one skill + progressions you can add the 15 or so dissimilar ones on the bottom rows and you only get about 40 for D3. D3 still comes out on top, but not really all that big of a difference IMO.
No, that graphic is accurate. Each skill has I believe 5 runes that you can apply to it that change the effect of the skill (ie. skill modifier). There are no increasing levels of skills, only additional modifiers that you unlock as you progress.
