Yes bots suffer a lot of damage. The damage affects them much more than it does you. Hitting another car in the rear does work in slowing them down, but not always. In EK i've lightly hit another car in the rear coming out of a chicane on the straight in my Audi. I then manage to overtake the Nissan on the straight. By the end of the race, that bot has been overtaken by many others and it's fastest lap time being 2:52 (contact comes after this lap time) and finishing with bots with fastest lap times of 3:05.

I've never managed to disable another car outside of NASCAR, but I haven't put much effort into it.
