Is it all speculation still at this point for what happens next? Like are they immediately void, does the govt have to repay importers the now illegal loss?

Or is this just another "trump did illegal thing but nothing will happen" kind of scenario?

I have not read the ruling, but….

A typical pattern is the appeals court (of which scotus is one) clarifies the legal issues and send the case back to the trial court to clean up and issue specific orders.

Trump govt will find another way to circumvent this and keep the tariff.

Any further action to end-around the Supreme Court decision and re-impose the tariffs will almost certainly require broad Congressional approval. And this is a very bad time to try to do that since nearly half of those seats are up for re-election this year.

I think this issue is effectively dead at least until we see how the new majority shakes out in November.

You can't get around the Supreme Court. Full stop. They can try, fail, and declare victory but they cannot find another way. They would literally be right back in the courts fighting their own consequences and punishment.

Afaik there's no consequences for the president ignoring the supreme court. Presidents have done so before. They mostly seem to get their way in the end.
