That depends completely on your context. The difference between them is the degree of formality. I can't really suggest which is appropriate without knowing what you are writing.
You can certainly use 'pursuant' in something that has a legal context. It is very formal. It would look really strange in an informal context. Native speakers might use it as a joke, but not seriously. It is something a lawyer would typically write, and would also typically be followed by the title of a specific law, not 'the law'.
'according to' is more in-between in terms of formality.
'following' is the least formal.
You could also use 'in compliance with', but again that is rather formal.
If your use is informal, I don't 'think I would use that sentence structure at all, to be honest.
