Light is a wave. Waves cannot exist without media.
The media of which light is comprised is called aether/ether.
It's true that there is no such thing as a perfect vacuum, but the problem is even worse than that. Reality won't allow a vacuum to exist at all (nequaquam vacuum).
Even if you were able to remove all known matter from a given volume, it would still be full of aether - and possibly finer things than that to boot.
In the relativistic faith, the aether is the structure of reality itself. It cannot be purged in any way, though it can be warped/affected. The kicker being that, due to aether-mcarthyism, the faithful usually don't even know that fact :(
