I wouldn't even try to guess what (if anything) that might do to the display.
The eink waveforms are not calibrated for -65 degrees, and the eink oil viscosity at that temperature would probably require minutes (or hours) to update the display). However, differential temperatures from rapid local expansion (heating) or contraction (cooling) would surely exceed the tensile strength of the glass, and spreading cracks would damage the ITO traces on its surface.

Yeah, too hot or too cold too quickly, bad news. -65 on your skin is bad news too, except when removing warts (though I did burn a wart out with a soldering pencil as a child).
