What do I keep and what do I throw away?
Ultimately, everyone's different. For me, a whole bunch of PF1 stuff I'd never used was a barrier to me enjoying PF2 so I ditched it. For others, it's valuable (either as a reference to plunder in future games, a recollection of past games or to keep the options open). It's pretty hard to give anyone else advice.
I kept barely anything. War For The Crown (which I really want to run one day) and a handful of campaign sourcebooks that I'll probably hold unread for a few years and then give away later. There's also a few collector edition things (signed by staff and so on) that are in their spot.

The PFRPG1 campaign books are all still valid. The stat-based stuff will be off. But it still has info on the organizations, gods, geography.
I still like to get evil ideas from my Book of Vile Darkness. Sure, it stopped being rules viable a few months ago, but the concepts are still just as creepy.
Find space in your attic. Keep all of it.

I still have all my AD&D books and modules, though some of the modules have some damage.
LOL I have my original D&D Set booklets for chainmail, every printed dragon magazine, basic set through 4e d&d and a complete pathfinder 1e collection. When I die, they'll have to get a coffin large enough to fit it all in because I'm taking them with me! ;)

All I weant is a straight answer.
What makes you think it wasn't a straight answer: IMO nothing is wasted. I could pull out my OD&D Supplement, Gods, Demi-gods & Heroes and convert info/items or I can pull out Scourge of the Slave Lords or The Hidden Shrine of Tamoachan and run them with a bit of conversion. I can say the same with anything I have from PF1.
What will be replaced?
Who knows? All I can tell you is that ALL of it will be of some use if only for the lore, descriptions and background information. Only the people making the books could give you a definitive answer and they most likely could only give you a limited answer based on what's already in the pipeline.

You people are absolutely no help at all. All I weant is a straight answer. What will be replaced?
If you never plan on running PF1 again, you could throw it all out.
Or, you could keep everything but the CRB, and pillage the rest for ideas.
Both are options, but I'm still keeping my CRB and PF1 stuff.

What does that even mean?
On the one hand, PF2 is a completely different game, and other than lore material, nothing from PF1 is (directly) usable in PF2. If you are planning on playing PF2, effectively all of your PF1 material except lore is superfluous and should be disposed of.
On the other hand, PF1 is a completely different game. If you're going to at some point potentially play PF1 again, nothing from PF2 is directly usable in PF1. All of your PF1 material should be kept to draw upon.
You can't look at it as "the APG for PF2 will have the witch in it, so I no longer need to keep APG for PF1 which had the witch". Keeping the APG 1 doesn't do your PF2 games any good.
Other than the setting, these are two completely different games.
Note: I'm not claiming things can't be converted, but odds are if you were going to convert material, you wouldn't be asking about replacing material.

Amen to that! :)
