It seems shorter like an abelisaur instead having the large head that Giga has.

Abelisaur lower jaws are too thin when compared to that of the Indominus' whereas as rex's has a lower jaw just has that characteristic thickness that the I. rex has in its lower jaw. In the case of the skull, the closest analog is Giganotosaurus. Although, if I had to say something else, it's a mix of T.rex and raptor, which kind of matches the rest of the anatomy of the hybrid.

In the case of Indominus's lower jaw, if you look at it with its mouth open with it's mouth open, the jaw itself, although it looks prety think, it actually pretty thin. Check it out:



Compare that to Rexy:



Rexy's lower jaw has a lot more depth and thickness to it than Indominus's.
