Even a token attempt to withdraw those powers would probably be enough to make him throw a tantrum and scream inwardly for a bit, and would likely cause the markets to bounce upwards a bit in Hopium before he just Vetoes it.
(Note how the markets today had a big bounce upwards that seemed to be fueled by a fake tweet hinting at a 90 day delay in tariffs... until the Tantrum in Charge said that was all fake)

With time it will happen. He only need a few GOP members to vote with the democrats. If the people who give them money turn on them they will turn on Trump.
