The rebels achieved a small victory but the entire empire still spans that part of the galaxy and still exists. Until the Rebels conquer Coruscant, nothing has really changed.

Ugh the whole EU and Palpatine's clones was one of the worst comics that I ever read.
The Rebel's didn't need to overthrow Coruscant, we saw the overthrow happening with the people pulling down Palpatine's statue.
The Empire was still there but there wasn't really the need or want to make another set of sequels where they fight a face less enemy. People point to the Heir trilogy of books where they created a Grand Admiral and the first time I read that series I thought that it would have made a great sequel movie trilogy, but then I read them again recently and realized that the infallible Grand Admiral Thrawn lost every single notable engagment not only with the Rebels but every rag tag smuggler and alien race in that series.
