I don't think Australia will lose if they don't have Warne. But it will obviously make it harder for the Aussies. No matter how good a team is, they are obviously going to miss the greatest leg spinner ever to have played cricket.
I am sure Australia will find enough replacements to bowl ten good overs in an ODI. However, there is a psychological advantage of having Warne in the team. He can make things happen, create magic sometimes. Thats going to be hard to replace. Especially if games go down to the wire.
