Today?

If you’re on the waitlist, do they give an official ‘rejection’ to the applicants that don’t make it? Or is it just that you don’t hear from them and assume you didn’t make it.

UCSD will send a denial and then announce they have closed the waitlist.

Do you know if there is an appeal opportunity if that happens?

UCSD does not state that you can appeal after a waitlist denial, but if denied you should contact admissions to see if that is an option if it does appear on your student portal.
