I cannot comment about QtWebEngine porting complexity, but I believe it should be possible to get QtWebKit [1] running on Android with relativel little effort if you (or someone else) is ready to invest some time into it.

In the past QtWebKit was known to compile for Android, and there are people running modern version of JavaScriptCore on Android. Single-process QtWebKit (QWebView and friends) has little platform-dependent code as it uses Qt for graphics, networking, and user interaction.
