Spoiler for End of Episode 4, concerning Ange:
Yes, Meta Ange (Gretel) literally exploded into pieces of meat.
That happened because Ange revealed her true identity in red to Battler (who still couldn't believe she is prior this point, due to the age gap), in order to confirm his own identity (this happens after Beato states that Battler wasn't Asumu's son), and to wake him up from his depression.
I'm still unsure of the reason why she died because of this, but she says she was a "sacrifice" in chess term, which will allow Battler to move on against Beato (which worked, as he turned completely serious and enraged).
It seems it was a rule she wasn't allowed to break in order to join the party (dunno if it is Beato's doing or so), but she sacrificed herself willingly. We can assume that Beato did the "you are not Ushiromiya Battler born from Asumu" on purpose in order to force Ange to sacrifice herself to help Battler.
It is however not mentioned if it will affect Ange of 1998, nor does it mean Meta Ange is dead for good. After all, her bios/meta tips is NOT changed at all (while Sakutarou got a "execute").
I think Rias might have a better explanation than mine.
