On wheezy i don't see nginx-extras depending on udev or any systemd*.
I don't have jessie but i couldn't trace any dependencies on
packages.debian.org either. Where did you see these dependencies? Can
you apt-rdepend them? The closest i could find was nginx-extras »
nginx-common » init-system-helpers but it goes on to perl-base » dpkg
» libselinux1 » libpcre3 and that's it. Maybe i missed something in
libselinux1? Could you be using a third-party module that may have
other dependencies? I didn't check Recommends.

Can't say i use the nginx packages much, though, i've been compiling
it from source since around 0.7. Back then even Sid was way behind and
after 1.0 it (like any other httpd) got bundled into -extras, -full,
-light, -whatever that never quite satisfied my needs.

I didn't check php5-fpm (i tend to use php5-cgi with some script in -
wait for it - /etc/init.d, but i forget which).

As to what will happen, again, no authority, but the main goal for
Devuan 1.0 is that whatever comes out then, is systemd-free. That
includes whichever *dev it ships with (there are a few threads about
possible candidates for this role).

HTH,
