I do not think so.
Everything mostly follows the path of least resistance. Economy, finance, etc. The actual law of the land is and will always be: profit.
H-1B was a viable way to make profit, so it became popular. Once it is not longer profitable, people will look for something else.
Will the new way be hiring American workers? maybe... Maybe it will be hiring from coding camps for less, maybe it is moving to another country, or almost anything.
It doesn't necessarily have to be hiring Americans computer science graduates. Someone will find the way and everyone will follow.
