Comment on Oracle and Microsoft are reportedly in talks to take over TikTok

Can somebody familiar with the law help me answer a few questions. I didn’t think the president had the power to delay a law taking effect. Would the next administration be able to collect fines from Oracle for continuing to host TikTok? Could any US company that competes with TikTok have standing to sue Oracle for violating the law and potentially costing them business?
