They're making the big bucks. Theyve regularly tried to get the show cancelled with that joke of "South Park Sucks Now" they even got the hashtag #cancelsouthpark trending on purpose. If they really wanted to walk away, they could. But they just keep coming back with more and more ridiculous demands for pay and they keep getting it.
As far as I can tell, they are genuinely good folks who use money and influence to do good. After taking ownership of Casa Bonita, during the renovation period that followed, they said that they will still pay the existing employees, but only if those employees do charity work while the place is being renovated. Mat and Trey make money but they don't seem hungry for more. They also renewed a deal with Paramount; but when CBS tried to cancel Colbert so that the duo's parent company, Skydance, will have the Trump admin approve the merger with CBS, Mat and Trey unabashedly criticised their company without fear of cancellation and despite having just signed a renewed contract. They were not punished nonetheless and if even if there have been, I believe they will stick to their guns.
TBF, there's some serious questions around how employees are being treated at Casa Bonita right now (but I'm not really all that knowledgeable about that stuff). But, yeah, they seem to be genuine people overall. They gave a ton of money to the animation program at UC Boulder. They've been pretty committed to an avoidance of hypocrisy--they've lampooned wealth and celebrity and are trying to not become the thing they've joked about.
I guess you are right. It's just about the money now. They already made the deal, so a lot more lazy episodes will be coming.
