So they have replaced Chester Bennington, a rape survivor, with Emily Armstrong, a rape apologist? They waited 7 years from Chester's death to piss on his grave with this replacement? Seriously?

it's more likely that they didn't bother to research and now they can't be bothered

I highly doubt it, considering that the band actively scrubs and censors their comment section of any possible mention of it. They're shitting on Chester's legacy.

One of the guitarists won't be touring live with them, only in the studio. So, not the whole band.

I'm not sure I can follow your logic here as to why they aren't in this case, just because they only do studio recordings with her.

It was announced after all the reports. So it wasn't, "I'm only studio now that we're all back" it's more, "we're back now and I may have planned on doing tours, now I'm not so sure."

IMO, of course. Reminds me of other tour shenanigans that bands have done over the years.

Did they explicitly state that it was because of her though? Because them not touring could be because of a number of reasons that are completely unrelated to the current events around her.
