I really don't think this will happen - Discord has hit a sort of "critical mass" that you don't just kill like it happened with Mixer.
If anything, I hope they will treat it like GitHub and let them act mostly on their own, while actually improving the service.
Recent feature additions point to an Enterprise service they are setting up, so this may be a part of their new strategy while keeping the service accessible to free users despite their crazy operating costs.

Then they can cash in on the Windows and mac/Linux crowd at the same time with a single product. The same will probably happen with Discord inside the Xbox ecosystem where they want to rival Steam with their Xbox game pass. Discord is the perfect community to do it with.
