I wouldn't think Bilbo was in danger of becoming like Gollum. He lived in Rivendell for 16 years with no apparent negative effects, as opposed to the 'thin and stretched' feeling he had begun to have just before he gave up the Ring.
Now, I don't think the slowing of decay in mortals caused by the Three could have been indefinite, but who knows? Had the One not been destroyed Bilbo might have had another decade or so in him.
