Ultimately, the battle between Sukuna and Gojo was heralded at the beginning of the series as a clash between the greatest wizard of all time and the greatest wizard of modern times. Their fight certainly lived up to all the hype, with both wizards demonstrating their unparalleled mastery of their cursed arts and control over their jutsu magic, demonstrating why they are on a different level than everyone else.
Eventually, Sukuna figured out the only way to counter Infinity, and that was how he killed Gojo at the end of this long and incredible fight. However, he did not get a chance to celebrate his victory as the rest of Jujutsu High School wasted no time and jumped into the fray to kill the Cursed King. Due to the endless onslaught of the heroes and the fact that Sukuna did not get a chance to properly recover from his fight with Gojo, he was ultimately defeated by Yuji and separated from Megumi, disintegrating into the wind.
It's really impressive that you can do this comedy like this, Yuji Itadori. Don't underestimate me… I'm… a cursed man!
How Sukuna was able to survive:
The scene where Yuji defeats Sukuna was finally an amazing moment to witness, especially when he seemed like the most unstoppable force of nature that no one could defeat unless they were as powerful as Gojo. However, the Cursed King underestimated Yuji, who proved to be the most talented wizard introduced in the series due to having learned various advanced techniques in a short period of time.
Furthermore, Sukuna underestimated Yuji in other ways as well. Although he saw him as a brat with a strong sense of entitlement, which was an insult to the jujutsu wizard, Yuji was the only one who felt some kind of connection with Sukuna because of the time Sukuna was in his body and the relationship they both had as the only family they had left. This is why Yuji's kindness is revealed in chapter 268 of the manga.
Sukuna… Let's try this one more time. Not cursing someone, but existing with that person.
Yuji picks up Sukuna, whose cursed form disintegrates into nothing, and offers him the chance to continue living in his body as before. By this means, Sukuna can continue to live, but he is essentially a prisoner trapped in Yuji's body, unable to carry out his whims and harm people as he did in the Heian period.
This gives Sukuna another chance to escape death, but it is highly unlikely that he will accept Yuji's offer, as Sukuna is a character who lives according to his own desires no matter what. His passionate speech to Kashimo proves this, where he says that living life according to his own standards and rules is the only way, and that he only lived that way because that is what he truly wanted to do.
If he were still in the holding, it would be the opposite of everything he represents, because he is essentially a prisoner who cannot live his life as he wants. There has been no indication that Sukuna is overtly afraid of death, so he would much rather go out on his own terms than continue his captivity.
Moreover, this could have happened. He was not seen completely disappearing as he collapsed, but instead, Yuji's face was shown at the last moment after Yuji gave Sukuna the choice to continue living if he wanted. Although it is very unlikely, there is still doubt about Sukuna's ultimate fate, as he could have accepted Yuji's offer. Other than this, there is no other way for Sukuna to survive.
