Most likely. The #1 cable provider, Comcast (conveniently, owned by NBC,) pulled FOX during X Factor and Glee during their time-slots for its subscribers. Literally everyone was bitching about it on Twitter:
I don't understand how a show that ended up with the same demo as The Voice and got a much higher demo than the AGT Finale is a flop. What does that make the other shows?
Nope, there's just too many talent shows on atm. American Idol should've been rebooted as The X Factor like what happened in the UK and all would've been fine, hell, even keep American Idols name but entirely change the format, but I'm guessing the other Simon wouldn't have let that happen.
The OP is such a mess and missed out some details. I have DirecTV and it wasn't just FOX, it was all the local channels like NBC, ABC, FOX, CBS, etc. etc. so, no this had nothing to do with the ratings, and if it did, then The Voice would have still made higher ratings because nobody could watch them either.
So anyone saying other wise can sit because the facts are right there.
It is a pretty big deal. This is probably one of the biggest reasons why X-Factor's ratings are as insanely low as they were both nights.
I don't think they would have been stellar, but it could have added 1 million people more.

One of the major reasons the ratings are so low is because Comcast & Directv conveniently stopped airing Fox when X-Factor was on, meaning lots of viewers couldn't watch it
Honestly, Simon is to blame. America just isn't here for X-Factor.
