It would be even more interesting if this goes through and the Texas high schools lose accreditation with respect to their diplomas being valid for admittance to colleges and universities.

It could happen. The public schools in my home town were disaccredited -- the main reason I was sent to a private school.

California universities have a list of textbooks that are not approved for credit. You might get admitted to the university, but have to take a remedial course to make up for a high school class taught from a creationist text.

At any rate, textbooks having creationist materials will be banned by the courts, and I don't think any reputable publisher will risk the humiliation. There could even be a backlash in which publishers use "banned in Texas" as a selling point.
