[Research] Does skin stop producing its own oil with too much moisture/emollient? Fact or Fiction?

Beauty Tips For Body Care
I'm having trouble finding any, or any consistent, research in this. I've heard that applying too much moisturizer, or too much hydration (including the 7 Skin Method) can end up drying up your skin and make it reliant on external hydration and emollients.Is this true, or just another unsubstantiated beauty myth like the pores opening/closing thing?​(I love how Weleda Skin Food, my moisturizer of choice, makes my skin feel when it's on and after, as well as how plump 7 Skin method with aloe juice makes my skin. But I've heard stories of too much moisturizer causing people to need to apply it like, every hour. and 7 Skins destroying the acid mantle - I don't want that to happen to me! Do I have something to worry about or nah?)
