Yeah I think you have to re-cast her. Presumably the scenes are going to be important and probably bring some kind of conclusion or finality to her character...and I think that character and Carrie Fisher are owed that, so an off screen death or a re-write would be the worst decisions in my opinion.
I didn't mind the CGI in Rouge One, but I can't imagine an emotional scene being done that way. A real actor is the way to go.
Tough situation. They really are in a no-win, as people are going to lose their minds whatever the decision is.
