The only reason he wasn't completely destroyed was that he didn't pour all of himself into the One Ring. He only poured a very large part. When that part was destroyed, through the destruction of the One Ring, he was weakened greatly. All that was left of him was a shadow that was easily scattered to the winds. Perhaps after a great length of time, after gaining some strength, he might return though Necromancy, but I highly doubt it.
