So when I use the TegraRcmGUI, it displays this message:

However i was wondering if there is a way to downgrade the firmaware to be able to hack it, thanks

Because their switch is obviously patched but being a low enough firmware would let them use Pegascape. To answer OPs question the answer is no. Either buy a modchip or sell this switch and buy an unpatched one

Also, if it's not a problem, what are the chances that there is a way to hack it in the future, rather than buying a new switch, mostly because i got this one pretty cheap and with little to no use on it

Chances are very slim to nothing. Maybe in 5-10 years there will be something, may be not. If you want cfw, you either look for a chip or buy a second hand unpatched unit (which is of course a better solution imo).
