In this case there is a 100% chance apple removes them from the app store - its in their TOS that they will remove apps that skirt their piece of subscriptions/payments.
Prior to this, apple was taking 30% from all platforms if their app was on the store (for in app purchases done on iOS, it also didnt apply to subscriptions)

Okay so explain Netflix?
This isn't a new concept. Lots of apps do this. The app literally just says you need an account and we can't tell you how to get one in this app.
Netflix, owned and operated by pedophiles pushing propaganda? Of course apple makes exceptions. It's their discretion
Okay.......? That's not really relevant to my point.
Literally every streaming app does the same thing.
It's not a new thing.
It's VERY common with subscriptions.
Spotify does the same thing too.
I could go on.
Ok so I decided to do some research, and you are right - Epics lawsuit forced them to allow apps to do this.
This was back when fortnite was removed
