I’m not sure if this has been answered or not but is there any truth to the rumour of LOTR discontinuing after this year due to the sets leaking early constantly.  

Where did you hear this? The only rumors I know of are about next year's set which could be (or not) a new Helm's Deep... I also doubt that the leaks, as frustrating as they may be for Lego, could result in the theme discontinuing. The only thing which really matters to them is sales, and as far as I know they have been rather good.

That was an April Fool’s prank

For context: Carter_bricks made a huge post on April 1st that was a mixture of obviously fake info (like LOTR being discontinued over leaks) and more plausible bits. Carter_bricks implied there could be some real stuff hidden in there, but most of it is clearly meant as a joke
