go to node_modules/react-native-code-push/android/codepush.gradle
It appears that the only change needed to make this work is to add 2 mkdirs() calls to the codepush gradle task, like so:
//...
if (variant.hasProperty("bundleJsAndAssets")) {z
def reactBundleTask = variant.bundleJsAndAssets
jsBundleDir = reactBundleTask.generatedAssetsFolders[0].absolutePath
resourcesDir = reactBundleTask.generatedResFolders[0].absolutePath
//add these 2 lines
new File(jsBundleDir).mkdirs()
new File(resourcesDir).mkdirs()
jsBundleFile = file("$jsBundleDir/$bundleAssetName")
//...
