Did Wonder Woman kill Ares?
In the conflict scene between Wonder Woman and Ares we are left feeling that she has defeated him. However, all we really know is that Ares is no longer around and there is a rather large crater where he used to be.
But, Ares is supposedly immortal, you don't just kill an immortal being. Also, he is supposed to be a major adversary of Wonder Woman's.
Killing him off in the first WW movie seems silly.
So my question is, did Wonder Woman defeat Ares by killing him or did she simply send him away momentarily?

But, Ares is supposedly immortal, you don't just kill an immortal being.
Of course you can... Zeus is dead as are the other gods* (killed by Ares)... at least as far as we know...
Thus, so far, we know that "immortal" does not mean "unkillable" in the DCEU.
Some fictional beings are completely immortal (or very nearly so) in that they are immune to death by injury, disease and age. Sometimes such powerful immortals can only be killed by each other.
So we've established that a "god" or "demigod" can kill another god... in fact, that's the entire reason Diana was created.
Diana takes Ares' assault (the lightning) and blows a hole right through him.
Is Ares dead?
Yes..*
* Until they decide they want him back
