People had a theory that ''people would turn on Reeves Superman'' because of the New Superman (Cavill), but the opposite happened. Man of Steel was trashed and so many spat at the film unfortunately, mainly because the critics (who loved the original Superman's) had nostalgia for Reeve's Superman - consequently people followed what the critics said and attacked Man of Steel.
I think the same will happen for Batman. Some have said that people will turn on Nolan's Batman, but if anything Nolan's Batman ratings have gone up (TDK and TDKR's ratings have gone up drastically in the IMDb top 250).
Batman is a very delicate character. Nolan's take was a wonder hit with the critics, I imagine most critics will feel the new take is nothing compared to Nolan's and decide to write bad reviews. They had trouble adjusting to a new Superman, so I very much doubt they'd take kindly to a new Batman (after TDKR was heavily praised by critics/audiences).
If this new Batman/Superman gets bad reviews, I can very much see Nolan fans turning on Snyder's take.
