Substrate editor allows to setup plated, plugged vias but the EM simulator says that it currently doesn't implement plated vias and plating will be ignored. Has anyone seen this? Is there something I need to set in the EM setup?

Plated vias are only supported by PiPro; see this info from the documentation:
Substrate Definitions Supported by EM Simulators
Slot layer
Svensson/Djordjevic dielectric model
Plated via
Supported
for PI-DC
Surface impedance conductor model incl. skin effect (sheet/thick)
Field modeling of conductor (Meshed interior)
Conductor roughness model (surface top/bottom)
Conductor roughness model (via sides)
