Not the focus of the comic but in the Injustice run, there’s a point where Superman is living an alternate dream timeline, and instead of Superman Killing the Joker, Batman does it so Superman wouldn’t. And he immediately turns himself into Gordon and serves his time.
I think this is how most Batman iterations would actually respond if they were ever pushed to crossing that line. He would face the consequences head on and take accountability.
