I agree that you're taking the correct route by stepping back but don't shut things off completely. It sounds like your Bfather is very understanding about you being caught in the middle and I am sure that you and he will continue to have a good relationship without your bsister being involved.
I can only imagine how bad it must hurt, but a lot of kids these days are spoiled self centered brats and it sounds like she falls into that category. The good news is that everyone sees them for what they are. When compared to a someone who is stable and mature, like you seem to be, they will be seen as the problem.
If your bfamily is uneasy about E getting all riled up and you step back, I am sure that your bfather will let everyone know why you are out of the picture. They will understand and see you as the bigger person.
You don't need to put up with E's crap. No one deserves that kind of treatment and you should be able to have a relationship with your BFather. You have every right and from what has been described, I'm sure that he'd rather spend quality time with you than dealing with a spoiled brat.
So IMHO, stepping back into the shadows is probably best for you, but let your Bfather and any others of the family be welcome if they so desire.
Best wishes and Merry Christmas!
