We know that the source of The Doctor's survival is the red crystal after his body is destroyed.
After the Core is destroyed, we don't see the crystal breaking.
If the crystal did survive then The Doctor's consciousness would still be intact.
I believe if The Doctor did survive, he would have lost all his powers (as Ballos gets killed making the Demon Crown cease to exist) and would have the form of a ghost.
However he would still be able to think and probably communicate.
