Grevious would lead to the CIS downfall as without palpatine, the CIS would be torn apart into a civil war or just be more confused and Dooku would try to hold it together. In the republic, without palpy they would just elect a new leader, though he may not be the best, the Jedi would need to take more responsibility since there is a power vacuum. The republic would be better than the CIS and would crush them. Plus anakin would stay Jedi and become one of the most powerful force users but he may leave the order to be a grey Jedi or something. But in the end, sometime later, snore would appear would start another civil war between the republic and other groups of dark side users and former separatists

Dooku easily could've kept the Confederacy together on his own; after all, he assembled it on his own and lead it with only advice and orders from Sidious. Only a handful of Separatists knew about Sidious and only the Council, the highest commanders, and Dooku knew of his role in the Confederacy. Grievous also held the Confederacy together for a little while and could probably have done it long-term as well. The thing with Grievous is that he had no ulterior motives: the Sith wanted an Empire, while Grievous was just in it to destroy the Jedi and the corrupt Republic. Once that was done he would probably serve as the Confederacy's figurehead and let the Separatist Parliament and Council do the ruling and intervene when necessary, as the Confederacy was supposed to be run. He wouldn't care about galactic politics and wouldn't try to manipulate them (though the Separatist Council likely would and Grievous would probably help them do it to a degree.) At any rate civil war wouldn't happen unless the Separatist Council split - and Grievous alone proved on many occasions to scare them enough to prevent this.
