Embassy will fall aswell, when the Skyrim becomes independent. Even if the AD somehow find a way to make it to Skyrim the nords know the terrain better then the elves do, and they use guerilla warefare (which is very usefull in defence). Plus Stormcloaks have better gear, as they now posses the Skyforge. I doubt the Skyforge will make a huge difference, last time I checked Glass Weaponry and armor still beats Skyforge Steel.
