When and where is the draw?
The draw takes place on Friday 19 March at the House of European Football in Nyon, Switzerland. It will be streamed live here from midday CET.

Quarter-finals
The following teams have qualified for the quarter-finals (there are no seedings or country protection):

Bayern München (GER)
Borussia Dortmund (GER)
Chelsea (ENG)
Liverpool (ENG)
Manchester City (ENG)
Paris Saint-Germain (FRA)
Porto (POR)
Real Madrid (ESP)

The eight balls containing the names of the quarter-finalists are placed in one large central bowl and shuffled. The first team drawn plays its first match at home against the second team drawn. The same procedure is repeated to designate the remaining matches of the quarter-finals.

Semi-finals

There are no seedings or country protection. The four balls containing the slips of paper “winners of quarter-final 1” to “winners of quarter-final 4” are placed in one large central bowl and shuffled.

The first and the second ball drawn designate the first pairing of the semi-finals. In addition, the first ball drawn designates the home team for the first leg. The same procedure is repeated to designate the second semi-final.

Final

A draw is made to determine the 'home' side in the final for administrative reasons.

What investigations are ongoing?
I think that's just some legal-ish disclaimer that if some club is under investigation, participating in the draw doesn't mean they won't be kicked out.

Why do they waste so much of our time on pointless gibberish every time?!

Wide open for all the English teams now with the two best non-English sides paired.
