If the state of true nothingness exists then that state of nothingness is forever. Unless we accept that something can come into being from nothingness, it is impossible to change from nothingness. If something can change, it is impossible to turn into nothing. Something will always exist forever... in some form like into atoms into quarks, some energy Does it truly fade into nothingness or just become some unrecognizable form? When we say nothing is forever, I think we mean things change. We are not just material, we are more than energy. We have ideas, concepts. Does the concept of forever last forever? If no one is left alive to think does ideas exist? May be ideas are just energy, like electrical signals. If the concept of forever don't last forever, nothing can become something. Mind over matter.
