It is not clear to me what 'matrix' you wish to have returned since
you'll be keeping an unknown number of values.  However, if you are
happy just to replace the unwanted values with a missing value then
something like

r[[1]][r[[1]]<0.75 | (r[[3]]>0.05 & !is.na(r[[3]]))] <- NA

might work.  I say 'might' because I am unfamiliar with rcorr() and thus
am not sure whether the components of r are matrices or dataframes, and
the above is untested.  You might be interested in abs(r[[1]]).
