I have never stumbled upon a source that has hinted about Emperor being reborn as a warp entity, never. Please write down at least one of these sources.

he gods are not created by being simply worshiped as gods. The Chaos gods and the Eldar gods are a good example. The were created from mortal's emotions and thoughts of different aspects. The chaos gods were created from all feelings of sentients beings of the galaxy (except Slaanesh who was born from the excess of the Eldars).

But like Slaanesh, The Eldar Gods were also created from emotions of powerful psychic beings. Like the Old Ones( and the eldars eventually). Who were then worshipped by the Eldars.

Despite the great powers that the Emperor possess, he is still a mortal being that resides in the realspace (though he will never die of things like an old age or a disease). And like any mortal, he possess a soul, which every living being has (unlike the gods, daemons and the warp-entities who are considered to be a soulless creatures). This is the main reason why he won't become a god. He was not created from a warp energy(like the gods, the daemons and the warp-entities), but giving a shape in the material realm, with a great psychic potential.

Being worshipped by some one does not gives the gods more power, nor does it make them gods( Be'lakor is a good example), this is the fact that the Emperor missed during the Great Crusade. He thought that if he will take religion away from the people, then the Chaos gods will be weaker, but that did not happen. People continued to make war (khorne), changes (Tzeentch), pleasure (Slaanech) and destruction (Nurgle), Those were the aspects that strengthened the Chaos Gods and let them turn the Forces of the Emperor upon himself.
