Summarizing my interpretation of it all, steadily declining demand for large sedans has made things precarious for the A8. A replacement may not show up before the end of the decade, and they appear to be evaluating whether or not combustion engines or going electric is best for the car.

There’s no easy answer, as there are already competitors on each side of the equation, so they’ll need to find that unique hook. I wouldn’t be surprised if it just becomes the next XJ or LS either and Audi prioritizes other segments entirely.
