Finishing the Reapers doesn't change who's in charge of the Council and what that means. You already know the end results, the "ending" that you've helped accomplish across the many conflicts in the games by the time you get to the final confrontation with the Reapers at the Crucible. Just like most movies and books, not everything is restated in the last few pages/minutes because they don't need to be. You're choice to control the reapers or cause the singularity doesn't change whether or not you killed the Rachni.
