We don't. I've seen this rumor on couple of different Disney blogs and planning sites, but nothing confirmed yet. I suspect they will move FOTLK, and even shut it down for a short period of time to move it to a new location/theater due to the Avatar construction, but I highly doubt it will be closed for too long.Since nobody else has mentioned this...
How do we know this is actually going to happen?
So, when they were looking at the AK map to find a place for Avatarland, did someone accidentally put their coffee cup on top of Dinoland? How else was Dinoland spared?
I think it's all specualation at this point. I heard the Avatar "land"/attraction would open in 2014. It also seems like the Avatar "land" has been blown a bit out of proportion. I think this will be a small area that will house one feature attraction, a couple of lesser attracations, maybe a meet-n-greet and a gift shop.I thought Avatar land wasn't set to break ground until 2015? Why on earth would they need to shut down FOTLK in early 2013, if so?
Hoping this is just a rumor, and that any closing will be delayed and very temporary.

Well dang it! We saw it on our first trip and loved it. Plus my daughter was picked to participate at the end. We ran out of time on our last trip (had to get to an ADR) and dd just said, No problem. We can just see it next time.
Hmmm early 2013 ds turns 3 and dd turns 10, free dining extended to 12/20, now one of our favorite shows possibly closing for an undetermined amount of time starting in January. Reasons just keep piling up to sneak back down there in December. Not like I needed any motivation but still.

Don't forget the official opening of the new Fantasyland in early December (the 6th).
