If a mixer receives coins that are from a known theft, as far as I know they remain neutral to the whole thing and limit themselves to do their job (mix the coins). There are certain sites like Helix that as far as I know are fully automatized, run on a onion tor website and deliver clean coins, after that I would say it's impossible to find, so he would proceed to sell in exchanges. Of course if he isn't a total idiot, he will not dump and will sell slowly so he doesn't get caught.

So in this situation... how can they find them? I wish they find them and people can recover funds but what if he runs coins through mixers?

You have to remember that was not one hacker that stolen those funds, there was more than one group of them,
exploiting the network. I doubt we will see dumping of them this year, they are too famous i think.

That is also a likely scenario. A group of them it would be more difficult to track especially if they hit the exchange all at once.
Nothing that was given yet with how they managed to do it still.
So still likely scenario is that it was an inside job as well. Undecided
