How is the rear camber adjusted?

What exactly is modified in order to change the camber in the rear?

There are two eccentric bolts/washers in the rear on each side. One changes toe, one changes camber.

You need two 17mm wrenches. You loosen the nut on one side of the $20 bolt and then turn the bolt head to roll the $10 washer in a slot cut into the suspension arm. Once it's set, then you tighten the nut back down. These bolts/washers last approximately 6-7 alignments before one or the other strips out. In my case it's been the washer. This is especially true if you are aggressively dropped and you're putting a lot of pressure on these pieces to get a good alignment.

Of course if you take it to a place and they can't figure this out by looking at the rear suspension for about 2 seconds, then you need to take the car somewhere else.

lol @ pointing out prices. I had no idea the Evo didn't need a rear camber kit until I ordered the BC coilovers. Easiest suspension install ever.
