Yes, Iwagakure still stands. Though there was a holocaust there against the followers of the religion. So during the attack, they would have fled with Sayuri to Uso.

The villagers who comprise Usogakure are the followers of Kurozome originating from Iwagakure. But overtime, because the religion exists in the other five great shinobi nations, others would immigrate to Uso to be with their kind and others who share the same religious views.
