This study talks to a significant amount of people they were studying (that had non-celiac gluten sensitivity) also had Hashimoto's.
This is significant because many folks claim if you don't have Celiac through testing don't worry about it.
Gluten certainly appears to be a thing with Hashimotos. I've talked to a ton of people that have seen improvement going gluten free who have Hashimotos. My sister recently did (long time Hashimotos patient) and she said it's made a huge impact for her.
It's not likely going to fix the damage that's done, but it helps in many other ways. Something to consider.
