Most likely Google will never update beyond Java 7, if their attitude at Google IO is anything to go by.

For me what counts is the official Java, not forks.

They've already updated to Java 8 with the switch to the OpenJDK so whenever Java 9, 10, 11, etc come out they'll be in sync.

I have news for you.

Check the Android source code.

They updated to selected parts of OpenJDK 7!
