Ok ok... a few things...
Let's presume that indeed all the Relays of the whole Network in the Milky Way exploded with the force of a Supernova, effectively destroying (more like annihilating on an atomic level) every single cosmic bodies in the system that those Relays where located in...
Ok, it would indeed, mean that those specific systems do not exist anymore, period, and agreed right there. That unfortunately includes Earth, everything and everyone (including floating dead bodies freezing at the vacuum of space from exploded ships) as well.
Now, with that in mind, the Mass Relays Network does not cover each and every single star systems of the entire Milky Way galaxy. From ME1 to ME3, if you combine all the systems we visited via the Network of the Relays including the unique systems to each titles of the trilogy, it'd imply that not even half of the "explorable" galaxy was Networked by the relays. Ok, let's PRETEND that if we did include all the inevitable unknown/yet-to-be-found Relays, and let's pretend that including those then maybe half of the galaxy's worth of star systems were indeed Networked, then...
Well then it means that whatever endings we chose, there's bound to be Relays-less, since-forever isolated star systems out there in the galaxy. And that within those unexplored (due to having no relays to start with) systems there has to be a few species around, perhaps still living on their original home world in any given state of evolution that you can come up with, be it equivalent to what we are today, still probing our neighboring celestial bodies, or still trying to figure out how to fly or how to use water vapor. In my mind it is clear that, sure, some relays were yet to be found, that the whole Network had never fully been explored at least not in "our" current cycle. And that I do believe that some species out there weren't even aware that intelligent extra-terrestrial life existed to start with, much less that a galactic-wide war was raging perhaps not even far from them without them even realizing it, or perhaps seeing it under some form via their only telescopes or something but unable to comprehend the meanings or implications, much less to communicate, if anything.
I mean seriously, it happens in the Milky Way, which just happens to have something along the lines of 300 or 400 BILLION stars in it, just.... try to picture that in your mind (by "your" I mean literally anyone out there whom might not have considered this in the first place). Oh, and, in the game, the Raloi race, was recently discovered, remember, they had been found from a recently discovered relay (surely). It proves that there's some unknown races out there, some WITH a relay in their star system, some surely without any.
