In theory if he is suspended for more than 10 working days (or 14 days) then his constituency can force him to resign if more than 10% of constituents sign the recall petition.
That would then give a by-election (which Johnson could stand in).
But, although the suspension is recommended by the standards committee it must be ratified by the House of Commons so there is every chance they would either just ignore it or reduce it to a week or something in order to avoid any chance of the above happening.

I still can't get my head around how someone who resigned and was labelled unfit to run the country, with an open investigation could even possibly be in the running?
What would happen if he was appointed Ans the investigation was proven? Would we then have to appoint another PM? Or would it just sort of disappear?
I honestly dispair.
