Was Nicholas II assassinated after he lost the support of his army and people?

He wasn't assassinated immediately after losing the support of the army and people. He abdicated in March 1917 once he realized that he did not have that support. He was murdered in July 1918, well after his abdication, during the Russian Civil War. This was done so that the pro-monarchist/anti Bolshevik forces could not rescue him and either restore him to the throne or use him to rally the rest of the country against the Bolsheviks.
