Dorna hasn't yet officially ratified the "Factory 2" rule changes. Bizarrely, Ducati is failing to confirm their switch to "Open" suggesting that if Dorna do change the rules they might go back to racing as a "Factory" team.
Maybe.

Next, Dorna will decide to have them run the first race so they can see what classes should exist. LOL
The GPC agreed on a solution on Monday, late afternoon. Press release being written by the FIM, but they tend to take their time. I expect to see the press release tomorrow.
I was not given all the details of the deal, but was told that it was more or less the proposal put forward by Dorna, with a few minor adjustments. Same fuel and engine penalties for success, though.
Maybe.

From both Dorna and Ducati?
