However, as has been rumoured, Rebels Season 4 will include Luke, Ashoka and Ezra averting Palpatine's escape to Exogol thanks to a time-travelling plane of the Force, then it would explain how Mara would suddenly reappear in the timeline (No Palpatine hovering in the background to directly control her).

If it gives thr finger to multiple bad executive decisions in handling the franchise, I don't care how they pull it off.
Tova:
The fan base got what they deserved in the end, IMO.

I've only heard horror stories of the E.U. continuity wars. Was it really that bad?
[I know trying to mash elements of all of them together is half the reason the prequel trilogy is a mess.]

Depends on how you define bad. Barely any oversight meant that any number of writers had carte blanche to work on Star Wars. Some stories worked because they packed a punch (Death of Chewbacca, or Darth Vader remembering C-3PO spring to mind) and introduced classic characters, like Admiral Thrawn.
Then you get moments like the Lepi.
So yeah, the EU was great and also terrible.
BenRG:
Yeah, there are some top-notch stories in the EU and then there are some things that must have sounded great in the pitch meeting but never really worked out. Like the Ssi-Ruuk (the one-shot antagonists in Siege at Bakura), who were trailed as this super-villains who would make the Sith look like toddlers but were basically wiped out in one book. Then there is the Dark Empire spur timeline, the less about which I say the better other than this is the EU foundation for the Sequel Trilogy.

Wait, did they get permission to use Bucky O'Hare?
