I'm not an expert on Orbot but in which case and how could an IP leak using Orbot, assuming Orbot routs all the activated app's communication only over TOR? And how can an app developer fix this relia...

It depends on whether Orbot is used as a VPN or as a proxy. In the former case, the application cannot escape Tor, in the latter case it can of course, avoiding using the proxy.
So Orbot as VPN is safer than current Amethyst's implementation, while the new built-in support has the same robustness, but avoid a dependency and all the troubles related to the configuration, offering a better experience to the user.

On the other side you have to monitor that Orbot is indeed running on the system, and not closed or crashed. Sometimes, rarely, Orbot just closes.
