From what I've seen on the cs rin ru forum threads, the crack overwrites the game executable and uses a custom dll. So presumably it does remove all significant Denuvo parts (enough for it to be played on linux) but I'm not knowledgable enough to know to which extent

nope it doesnt, voices cracks use a similar method to old cpy cracks: they reverse engeneered denuvo hardware fingerprint generation, so the crack can generate a working fingerprint of any pc, skipping the "steam ownership" check. Denuvo checks still run, but it sees a "good" fingerprint so it doesnt crash the game.

Still it's not an easy task, denuvo is obfuscated like hell and requires a lot of knowledge and time to catch all the quirks.
