Spider-Man will remain in the MCU as long as Tom Holland plays the character. That was the deal they made.
The MCU-connected Spider-Man has brought in the most net revenue for Sony since the first Tobey Maquire Spider-Man film.
Venom was Sony's attempt at expanding this currently-successful franchise to include Spider-Man's most popular adversary.
For Sony to take this, a relatively lackluster film, and say to Marvel Studios "we wanna go it alone," would be like Disney firing Kevin Feige and replacing him with Kathleen Kennedy. And before anyone says Amy Pascal is not as bad as Kathleen Kennedy, all I have to say is Ghostbusters 2016.
