The heavy botting began on March 20.
When the World Hot Characters results were updated on the 22nd (23rd in JST), they displayed the Mar 9–15 period.
It's still displaying that period; the heavily botted week's impact would have been revealed on the 29th (or 30th in JST).
The only change today is that the botted votes have been purged; there has been no change to the World Hot Characters display.
You can cross-check the website and official tweets to confirm that:
