I don’t expect they would, since Skyblivion already has their blessing and the team has been working with representatives from Bethesda to make sure that everything they’re doing continues to be kosher with them.
The Skyblivion devs also released a statement recently that they are also looking forward to the release of this remaster, and believe that there is enough love to go around for both projects.
Basically, Oblivion fans are going to be eating well this year. If the official Oblivion remaster is underwhelming, there will still be Skyblivion to look forward to.

It’s all kosher until Zenimax decides it can make more money.

Agreed, though one would think they’d have taken steps to C&D Skyblivion the very moment they decided to move forward with their own project if that was their intent. It wouldn’t make much sense otherwise to let Skyblivion keep going this whole time if they saw it as a threat to their profits, since the mod is pretty close to completion at this point.

If they C&D’d skyblivion now only to offer their own remaster it would turn a lot of people off of it, they’ll wait until a few months after the remasters release, once they’ve gotten the bulk of their sales in and aren’t worried about the PR backlashing cutting sales they’ll drop the hammer on the skyblivion team.
