We've come across reports and have later confirmed them to be issues *NOT* related to V-Ray.
These issues are linked to Arnold in Maya and have been reported to Autodesk.
To workaround them, you can make sure Arnold is NOT loaded:
1. Batch rendering freezes or crashes:
This seems to be caused by Arnold and comes up in mtoa 5.1.0 and later and happens even when V-Ray is not used.

2. Crash when importing Chaos Cosmos assets
This seems to be caused by Arnold and comes up in mtoa 5.2.0 and later.
This happens because Arnold installs their own .tx texture handler which always overrides the V-Ray one. The Arnold .tx handler doesn't support all the features that we use in our .tx textures.

I'll update the thread once there's Maya updates that we can confirm fix those issues.
