The court cases won't get to the Supreme Court till a few weeks after the elections. By then the new Justice will be seated. Even Susan Collins will vote confirm after her US Senate contest is settled one way or another. She'd have nothing to lose.
The time between the formal Supreme Court nomination of Sandra Day O’Connor and her final Senate confirmation was 33 days. (Aug. 19-Sep. 21, 1981).
For John Paul Stevens, the formal process took only 19 days (Nov. 28-Dec. 17, 1975).
There are 44 days until the election.

There are other Rinos facing election who could vote against the nominee, McSally, Gardner, Tillis. Regardless, if we end up 4-4, and we have 2000 Florida type decisions to be made, what happens?

If Collins loses she will not support Trump’s nominee. If she wins and Trump loses she will not support his nominee.
