I say: not a chance of that. It seems quite clear to me that the major OEMs have no interest in competing (and sometimes losing) against specialist builders such as Mosler, Ginetta or Reiter and will thus block all attempts of those guys getting into GT3 - if necessary by quarantining them in national championships by making sure that they only get national homologation. There really haven't been any successful GT3 projects by boutique manufacturers since the Alpinas, Morgans and Ascaris of the late noughties - and I suspect it will stay that way until there is a drastic drop in the numbers of interested OEMs.
