Since the Castrums and Garleans still exist in the game, I assume that while Operation Archon was a success, the Garleans still have fairly major operations, but have "turtled up" with the loss of the Legatus and the succession crisis. Aggressive operations have ceased, but they're still doing occasional raids and defending their territory. In my mind, I put the world more or less at "the events of the current patch are currently happening but haven't yet resolved."
In terms of IC knowledge, while I don't RP L'yhta as having been part of Operation Archon, she's aware of it through her Maelstrom connections. She also raids Garlean encampments semi-regularly for fun and profit. As a result, she has some inkling of what's going on in the Empire. Her knowledge is nebulous and rumour-based; after all, it's not like she's having tea with the Garleans.
She's heard that there's a succession crisis in the Empire and has heard rumours that the Legatus of the XIVth perished, which explains the drop in offensive operations. She fully expects the Empire will resume it offensive stance soon, which is why she tries to be a fly in their ointment as much as possible.
