The spoofers have had a way around this for some time now, as GPS spoofing simply does not require root privileges.
Niantic is not actually making any attempt to look for GPS spoofing software. They simply invoke Android's SafetyNet which doesn't care about GPS at all but does care about other things which happen to coincide with what's on some cheater's phones. It will never be anything like an effective measure against GPS spoofing.
