I am currently running 10.12 and was able to change that shortcut in System
Preferences.
I went to the Keyboard shortcuts section of the Keyboard in System Preferences.
Under the App Shortcuts I added the “Emoji & Symbols” menu item and assigned a
keyboard shortcut of control-option-e.
With limited testing it seems to trigger that menu item in any situation that
the frontmost app has an edit menu.
I believe that menu item is automatically added by the OS, not by the developer.
