I have observed this behavior as well on my SharePoint site. Try below things after "saving" the JSON in body section:
Refresh the page (hard refresh: Ctrl + F5 in windows)
Clear browser cache
It worked for me after hard refresh and I also think that this is a temporary issue from Microsoft side (maybe because of latest updates in SharePoint online).

I am seeing the exact same thing - I have customized forms on other sites with no issue but it's now showing up where the body, header and footer all just disappear on any new sites.

Hi, it seems to be, for me anyway a temporary issue, or worse an unstable one from Microsoft 😞 ! With the code above it is now working (for a few days with no issues), with absolutely nothing done from my end ... a mystery!

Thanks for the update, I'll just keep trying and hope it's a transitory issue..

    ganeshsanap I have been seeing this problem intermittently. I have a calendar that I'm styling. When the calendar styling is incorrect then the form styling can't be updated. Closing the related pages, clearing the cache, and a brief pause seems to help. I've been using Edge. I may try Chrome.
