as long as they arent broken off completely should be okey. they will still grow and be of use until the cracks in the vellum heal or shoot out some green tips.
When you repot a plant that has lots of aerial roots like the vanda, always water the roots till they are good and soften up. Then you can bend them some to fit your pot without breaking the vellum on the roots.
