It's being appealed so he could still be extradited. The reasoning was essentially that the US prison system is more inhumane and he's a suicide risk.
The US could provide assurances to the appeals court convincing them to overrule the decision. I think it's likely they succeed.
I could see Trump doing this tomorrow as a distraction from his other pardons. The focus would be on him pardoning Assange and Snowden instead of him pardoning more of his loyal soldiers. It's icky for Snowden to be lobbying him to do it but I can fully understand the pragmatism.
