Will our existing application that uses AWS SDK for Java 1.x stop working after December 31, 2025? if not then how long we can use SDK java V1.x

The announcement has an answer for this and more:

Existing applications that use AWS SDK for Java v1.x will continue to function as intended, unless there is a fundamental change to how an AWS service works.

Since Java SDK v1 will no longer receive updates, we highly recommend to migrate to Java SDK v2.
