Some spoilers here, so stay clear if you don't want any.

In the timeline that old Spock comes from, what will be said about him now that he went back in time? What is his status? Missing in action? Presumed dead?

Yes
 
Well, according to Star Trek Online's entry for 2387 in its "story" section:

Star Trek Online Path to 2409: 2387 said:
According to sensor reports recorded on Stardate 64471.6 by the USS Enterprise-E, the Hobus supernova was contained by a limited singularity, ending the threat to the quadrant.


Starfleet believes that both the Jellyfish and the Narada were lost.
"He sacrificed himself to save us all," Ambassador Picard says of his friend Spock. "May his soul live long and prosper."


So they think he's dead, along with Nero.

I'm pretty sure the Jellyfish computer in the film mentions it being from 2387 to Spock originally, which places the film around 2258.

Meh. Alternate timeline. Nero charging around changes quite a few things so I don't really mind.
 
Online pretty much copies the entire story verbatim from Countdown and the comic also uses elements of the online game's universe. Generally as a version of it appeared on screen as well I think it's safe to regard their interpretation as canon.
 
Is all this perhaps mentioned in Countdown?

Well to quote from the end of Countdown 4:

Data : There is no possibility of escape from the singularity. We are too late.

Picard: No. Spock knew. He knew this would happen. He knew he wouldn't escape.
He sacrificed himself to save us all. May his soul live long ...and prosper
