I guess my question was referring to the final vote, i.e. will the Democrats honor the 60 vote threshhold, or will they simply change (or ignore) the rules in order to allow for a simple majority (50 votes + Biden) to pass.

No the next vote has to be cloture and it requires 60 votes.
That nuclear option is gone since it had to be done by Oct 15 !
