How to chain tokens to get taxonomy term via node entity reference fields?

I'm attempting to insert a chained token in a file path and it's not working -- is this a supported pattern for filefield_path, or am I using incorrect token syntax?

[node:field_report_category:entity:field_report_topic_area:entity:name]

Node Type A has field_report_category as an entity reference field to content of Node Type B
Node Type B has field_report_topic_area is an entity reference field to a taxonomy term
I'm trying to get the taxonomy term name via Node Type A, but the above token doesn't output anything.

These tokens work, but don't produce the string I need:

[node:field_report_category:entity:field_report_topic_area] outputs an HTML link to the term name within the path, example:
<a href="/report-topic-areas/term1" hreflang="en">term1</a>
[node:field_report_category:entity:field_report_topic_area:entity:tid] outputs the matching term ID, but I need the name rather than tid.

I am facing a similar problem
I need the folder where a file is saved to be formed with the id of a node related to the main node.
Something like this:
[node:field_a:entity:field_b:entity:field_c:entity:nid]
This works correctly in the drupal 7 version of this module but not in 8.x

Use [node:field_report_category:entity:field_report_topic_area:entity:name]. ("name" instead of "tid")
