In the code you have added to the question you are using $Ecategory->description, not category_description() function (you asked specifically about this function), so the category_description filter won't be applied. Note that you are printing the category description field directly from the database results. As @PieterGoosen said, you need to replace $Ecategory->description with category_description($Ecategory->term_id) or apply wp_trim_words() directly to $Ecategory->description.
