DOJ claims to have opened an investigation on that.

The procedural status on any license disciplining is about the same as for Bill Clinton when the Federal judge made a finding that he had committed perjury and reported it to the Arkansas Bar Association. Except in this case there is enough publicity for the Nevada Bar Association (and the Federal district in which the prosecutor(s) are licensed) to know about the atrocious behavior.
The process may take some time (weeks or months) unless there is litigation within those systems over the allegations. The Government can appeal the Judge's ruling for instance, which could take a while.
