No proactive information from LATAM whatsoever, had to "discover" myself the cancelation.

As per this https://farsouthexp.com/chile-is-slo...-again-240721/ interesting source, the country (not Rapa Nui) could reopen to tourists early October 2021, but I am not too confident that this will be without quarantine.

As per today 79.5% of the eligible population of Chile vaccinated tough.
Yes, you can exchange your voucher for cash. I did this when LATAM cancelled my Easter Island flight last year.

Also, as noted above, the island has been held to stricter standards and precautions throughout the pandemic; regardless of what Chile ends up doing this Fall, I still would not expect to get to the island for tourism purposes until 2022.
