Ain’t gonna happen. Just like there will never be ordained female deaconesses in the Catholic Church.

Well, you’re about 1800 years too late. There were ordained deaconesses in the Church. We still have the rite of ordination for them. Of course, they did not receive the sacramentof Holy Orders any more than did a porter, lector, exorcist, acolyte or subdeacon – all of whom were “ordained” in the Church. Today we recognize that this was a blessing rather than the sacrament of Holy Orders and no longer call it “ordination.”

But, you are correct, women will not be granted the sacrament of Holy Orders.
