Sad thing is I'll bet the extreme majority of those 'fans' are picked on all the time (I mean, if they have nothing else better to do than to put so much time and effort on to something they don't like, they obviously don't have much of a life).
People never take a step back and try to place themselves in that other person's shoes.
Sorry to see that Tran is having to deal with this crap. Personally, I really liked her work in the movie.
Doctor Strange: "You are the right person to replace Logan."
X-23: "I know there are people who disapprove... Guys on the Internet mainly."

The fans were hateful to Jake Lloyd after TPM too.
Lest we not forget the vitriol Lucas got for the PT and one of the reasons he retired and sold Star Wars off when he did.
The adult fanboys weren't going after Jake. They might be bashing him on message boards, but he was bullied very badly at school. That's not due to adult fans, that's was his classmates.
The media also wasn't very kind to him. Before TPM came out, there was a Newsweek article saying Jake couldn't act and called him Mannequin Skywalker. Ron Howard actually defended Jake:

From what I recall back then, most fans recognized that Lucas was at fault for his script and directing, not Jake himself. Releasing the casting footage showing the other potential Anakins didn't really help Jake's case that he was even right for the role - the two other boys had better auditions. Unless Jake was going online reading comments, that wasn't going to impact him as much as his classmates teasing him at school.

And there is still no confirmation on the story besides one tweet.
I use to check out her uploads on Instagram, and besides a few people criticizing Rose's actions I didn't run into harassment.

Agreed. Kelly has made no statement. There's been no well-known incidents (like the insane crazy meme with Millie Bobby Brown that cause her to leave Twitter).
The major impact was how the entire narrative online about Star Wars fans changed overnight from "Solo flopped, what's wrong with Star Wars?" to "Star Wars fans are toxic and evil".
