It works exactly the same, Ashaya dies immediately as a State Based Action due to being a 0/0 as she loses her ability that sets her power and toughness.

[Hackworth's answer](https://boardgames.stackexchange.com/a/53035/22772) on the original question lays everything out pretty well, the only difference is that the cards don't become mountains, the creatures stay forests, and other non-basic lands stay as they were, with nothing but mana abilities, for the moment before all the SBAs resolve and Ashaya is removed.

One notable difference is [Rootpath Purifier](https://gatherer.wizards.com/Pages/Card/Details.aspx?name=Rootpath%20Purifier) will stop Ashaya from dying to Blood Moon, but not Blood Sun, because Blood Sun affects all lands, Blood Moon only affects non-basic lands.
