Not really, they just haven't confirmed it as canon. As of right now the Official Canon (whether we like it or not) consists of many "Vague" instances that still match up with the old EU.
The Jedi and the Sith were at War with each other (Maz's castle sits on a Battlefield of that war)
Bane began the Rule of Two
While George Lucas himself changed Korriban to Morriband, it is exactly the same. Home to ancient Sith Tombs and Temples.
The Sith Code we all know and love is still canon
The Sith at one point sacked Couruscant and destroyed the Jedi Temple aided by Pre Vizla's ancestor (Shae Viszla from SWTOR MMORPG)
The Sith had a weapon on Malchor V....which ties into Revan's existence.
one of the main reasons I don't like Disney anymore.
*to self* did I ever like it to begin with?
?
Disney writes the Checks. Kathleen Kennedy makes the decisions about Lucasfilm along with the story group. Both Kenendy and main members of the story Group (mainly Leeland Chee and Pablo Hidalgo) have worked at Lucasfilm for decades. Chee and Hidalgo have been involved in the keeping the canon "straight" for years. Chee is the one that came up with the Canon Levels, basically saying as long as it didn't contradict the films it could be considered canon. But when give free reign after Lucas left they stripped it bare and imposed their own will. "Disney" isn't non-complacent though but Scuttlebutt is Bob Iger is not pleased at how the IP has been handled.
But there is a little hope. When the creator of that Awesome Vader Fan Film was hit with a copyright claim (by another part of Disney) Lucasfilm ordered it to cease within just a day. As well the Creator just announced Lucasfilm themselves have invited him to Celebration and given him a media pass.
