So yes a temporary internet connection is required. In order to download the updated keys.

No, there are no updated keys that need to be downloaded. It's kind of like, they just stop including the key matching the revoked device on future Blu-ray releases. All other devices are completely unaffected by this, because their key is still on the discs. So they don't need to change or update anything.
