Yes, the copyright problems with the studio is troubling. CBS owns the TV rights whereas Paramount owns the movie rights. This is one of the reasons why JJ Abrams left the series and went to the Star Wars universe. Pine was a good Kirk, but he can be recast, but it might cause some problems with continuity.
Yes, Star Trek Beyond did cause some major problems for the studio, because it didn’t do that well. This Midnight’s Edge video is pretty revealing about the behind the scenes issues with the ST Beyond. I remember a director getting fired and another director coming in. I loved Beyond, but mainstream moviegoers didn’t like it.
CBS and Paramount really need to be merged back together so there aren’t any clashing merchandise ideas. I would like one shared universe, but I am okay with there being two main universes. Heck, if DC Comics and Marvel can do it, why not Trek?
