I don't think that Loki kill him. He might have either fall into the Odinsleep or he might have dump him on the Dark Elves' homeworld and he might appear in GOTG in an mid or end credits scene to set up for Thor 3. Also, even if Anthony Hopkins does not return, they can replace him. (Two choices to replace him: Clancy Brown or Liam Nesson).
