The "ecocide" theory is already outdated. Nowadays, researches have found that rather than the destruction of the ecosystem, diseases brought by Dutch, Spanish and Chilean colonizers and their attrocities have led to a stark population decline. Traditions even further dissapeared when missionaries preached the christian faith.
Even though climate change is a real danger which we need to act upon urgently, ecologists also sometimes change historical facts or biase data to come up with conclusions that are advantegeous to their cause, while not necessarily true. Trees have been cut in Rapa Nui, but have not led to their downfall.

A confluence of all those mentioned, most likely,led to its extinction.
Same elements, plus more, e.g. nuclear, ballistic, drone, chemical weaponry, hypocrisy, corruption, fake this and that, discrimination, apathy, idiocy, etc. persist In our world today.... Same trajectory?
