Although this sentence looks grammatically correct, maybe it is better to have opinion from a native speaker.
> In spite of the controversy it aroused, the question still remains open.
This doesn't quite make sense to me. Questions don't get closed as a consequence of arousing controversy, so "in spite of" feels out of place. Maybe this:
The question aroused controversy, and still remains open.
Not entirely sure what to do with this one, so I disowned it for the time being.
I added this sentence: #6885709
The question aroused controversy, and still remains open.
Since the current sentence is already translated, I suggest we leave it as it is.
