Unless Russia goes to war the nations of the world won't boycott.
I think it falls to the individual to boycott, the sponsors are too big to care.

Yeah for sponsors the ship has sailed, I'm thinking more of putting considerations like this on the radar of companies going forward. Perhaps Visa thinks twice about renewing it's sponsorship if they get significant pressure. The cynical side of me can't help but think that would just lead to mastercard stepping in.
