No, the GOPe will keep Boehner if they don't get their candidate. Boehner is still the Speaker. Unless a new one is chosen, Boehner will remain.

IMO Boehner saw that McCarthy was never going to get the votes, so they pulled this scam of McCarthy withdrawing and Boehner being the only one to "replace" him. The GOPe will prevent anyone else from getting 218 votes.

Boehner says he’ll stay until replacement is chosen

Vacate the speaker..now.
You’re not resigning Boehner you’re being fired!
