Only the base cooldown is reduced. This means, CDR will be applied after Hemorrhage stacks reduction - even if Crippling Strike could go below 3 seconds, it would have 1.8 seconds cooldown at shortest possible downtime.

But surprisingly, yes, it cannot be reduced below 3 seconds, no matter what the circumstances are. Interesting.
