It was not foretold that Judas would betray the Lord Jesus. Judas was never identified that he was the one to betray the Lord. Judas chose to betray the Lord because of love of money. He sold the Lord for 30 pieces of silver coins. Before this, he was stealing from the treasury box which was entrusted to him.
Judas repented after the betrayal but instead of obeying God, he preferred to die.
The Bible says that thieves shall not enter the kingdom of God. By this alone, Judas could not enter the kingdom of God. According to the Bible, he is now in Hades waiting for the judgment day.

I think that's a hard question to answer. That's between God and Judas. It all depends on what went through his mind and heart those last few seconds. Whether or not he felt contrition for what he did.

Given that God is loving and merciful I believe that Judas is wherever is best for Judas' progression in the next life.
