Scientists Find Soft Tissue in T-Rex Bone

...A 70-million-year-old Tyrannosaurus rex fossil dug out of a hunk of sandstone has yielded soft tissue, including blood vessels and perhaps even whole cells, U.S. researchers reported....
..."Preservation of this extent, where you still have this flexibility and transparency, has never been seen in a dinosaur before." Feathers, hair and fossilized egg contents yes, but not truly soft tissue....
...The finding certainly shows fossilization does not proceed as science had assumed...

Since it is impossible for organic matter to survive millions of years, doesn't this finding dismiss the notion of evolution? Seems like creationism is a better theory to explain everything.
Although, I never quite bought into evolution since it violated the first and second law of thermodynamics:
#1 Matter can neither be created or destroyed. If matter can't be created, then evolution can't be accurate. A creationists solution to this problem is a God that operates outside the realm of physics.
#2 Law of Entropy, that things go from order to increased disorder. The evolutionary theory states the opposite. Evolutionist argue creation came from a random act which lead to increasing sophisticated organisms and order.
