This has become a topic of interest for some people, so I'll propose a quick idea.
It seems Sasuke's right eye will remain as his Eternal Mangekyo Sharingan, while his left eye has awakened the "Rinnegan".
If Kaguya and the Shinju are any indication, it unlikely that his right eye will transform into the "Rinnegan", because Shinju was a cyclops. There are some issues with how this will affect the eternal Mangekyo Sharingan, since that requires two eyes, but I'm not too worried.
So to start with, I don't believe Sasuke will be using the conventional 6 paths [Tendo; Gakido; Shurado; Jigokudo; Chikushodo; Ningendo; Gedo]. Likely, he won't be having 6 dead bodies to control. I'm not sold on the "4 higher paths", either.
A hidden power of the Rinnegan, is Onmyoton. This was first suggested by Obito's explanation of Rikudo's Inton and Yoton powers that were divided amongst the Uchiha and Senju. It was here we first see Hagoromo with the "Sharrinnegan" design.

Uchiha's kinjutsu, Izanagi, is based on the principles of Inton + Yoton, but normally lasts mere seconds, and varies with individual.

Orochimaru attempted to solve this by integrating Danzo Hashirama and Shisui's dna, and many Sharingan. Obito on the other hand, being a master at controlling the dna, was more capable of practically applying Izanagi in battle.

Later, it was confirmed that the Rinnegan, the expression of Hagoromo's chakra, uses Onmyoton in the form of Madara's black rods.

Though somewhat minor, these rods were able to stop Sasuke's arrows. Lastly, we were shown Kabuto's Sage jutsu that allows him to bring things to life and control them.

What I am proposing, is that while Sasuke may not regain his Sage [Senpo] powers, he will definitely gain Onmyoton-based powers. The only things that can withstand the 10 tails' Onmyoton power, are natural energy and pressure generated from physical movement [Guy's traijutsu].
However, it was confirmed this chapter that Sasuke can touch Madara's black rods without being affected.

Thus, I believe the purpose of getting the Rinnegan, is to add Onmyoton to Sasuke's existing jutsu. The obvious ones, are Izanagi, Amaterasu, and Susano'o.

This perhaps, is the "true power": two seemingly completely unrelated eyes functioning together, cohesively, as opposed to a mere Sharingan in which the Rinnegan as been awakened [Madara's eyes].
After all, the only person who used two distinct ocular powers together, is Sasuke, with Enton: Susano'o Kagu-Tsuchi [Which literally means "Flame Release: [He] with the ability to help by all means with Smoldering Earth/ Affixed Auxiliary Earth Lord"].
