Rupert Murdoch owns 21st Century Fox, which brought the magazine in 2015 for $725M.
Disney bought 21st Century Fox from Murdoch two years later.

The National Geographic Society still exists, yes, and makes money off the partnership with Disney. Their current programs are listed at https://www.nationalgeographic.org/projects/programs/.
Is there any proof it ever stopped?
