Does 30 grams of fat per day reduce recurrence rates?

I keep seeing everywhere it seems that breast cancer survivors are advised to limit their fat intake to 30 grams per day to prevent recurrence. Can you really reduce your risk of mets and local recurrence with diet?
I heard about a study that was done a while ago that showed a benefit for women who cut their fat intake from 50 grams to 30 grams and reduced their risk of recurrence. Was this study since reversed?
I was advised to eat a basic healthy diet and to just not get fat and was told that there are no diets proven to prevent breast cancer. Is there a benefit to eating low fat? I am normal weight.
