This branches out into three possible conclusions.

1. Sumire is forgotten, though that's not likely after all the buildup the writers had done. 2. Sumire contributes to the problem and possible Fifth Great Ninja War found in the first episode of Boruto, and is the reason why the Hokage's faces were destroyed. 3. Sumire realizes that she has been attacking for the wrong reasons and like Tobi, stops her terrorizing and aids the Konoha village in their possible Fifth Great Ninja War.

What do you think? I think her friends would still want her to be safe and happy if they learn about her origins and that it's possible she was misguided. I think it might be more likely she's jailed and her friends convince Naruto to let her out after some time. As for her skills in deception and disguise, I think it's because she didn't know of any alternative at the time so she took what she was given. I reckon Boruto will convince her that she has a life and future ahead of her with her friends and will try and repent first.
