All we can say for now is that she left the battlefield. Really all the speculation is just fueling the mystery. Yachiru lost and hasn't been seen the same as Izuru lost and hasn't been seen. Kubo is having characters that lose removed until later. If they truly died or disappeared we won't know until close to the end of the arc. Also Kenpachi wasn't distracted very much by here disappearance to my best of knowledge.
