if they've distributed copyright-violating code, and haven't fixed that, then yes. do you deny that they've distributed copyright-violating code in the past?
IANAL, but I'm quite sure that most sane legislations cover this kind of copyright violations in civil law, not in criminal law, so no, if they only did that they didn't commit any crime and they can't be called criminal.
They are people who did something wrong (are still doing? I don't care about android phones so I didn't check) and they are liable to pay damages and other consequences, but nobody of the people involved would get a criminal record because of this.
