I really wish people would stop using the term "ship" for an actual relationship between two persons/characters. Shipping refers to fan-speculation/hype/hopefulness. Evelynn and Twisted Fate were dating - they broke up. That is actual lore. The ship is the relationship between Twisted Fate and Graves (and Burning Tides definitely stoked that ship).

Katarina and Garen have been the Romeo and Juliet story from the start. They aren't in a relationship at present because they haven't reached that stage of the story - and maybe they won't. Riot is alluding to/reaffirming an established story.

In addition to those mentioned, there's also Quinn's crush on Jarvan, as confirmed by the writer. Well, not sure if that counts as a ship - the writer intended for Quinn to sound like she was fond of Jarvan, although whether a reader picks up on that is debatable. The ship is whether Jarvan reciprocates; and Jarvan/Shyvana shippers did oppose that (and the writer encouraged this opposition).

P.S. I hate the Diana/Leona ship. And yes, it's Ekko/Jinx not Ekko/Vi.
