Currently GOP candidates have to win at least 8 states to be nominated at the convention, GOP elite is planning to amend this rule to try to stop Trump

What about Rule 40? This obscure rule passed to prevent Paul from being nominated on the convention floor in 2012, requires that candidates win a majority of eight delegations to be entered into nomination and have their delegates counted. It is almost certain to be amended in the week leading up to the GOP convention, depending on circumstances. (For instance, the minimum could move higher, in the case of a clear nominee, or lower, if there’s a contested convention.)

Leave it up to the establishment of both parties to cheat because they can’t win fair and square.
