Probably nothing beyond reaching out to Russia to "express disapproval".  It was a "juvenile but accidental" event.

The drone was brought down by the US, which I take it to mean that it was recovered, not that it was destroyed.

The US crashed the drone into the Black Sea. It was not recovered, and was hopefully destroyed. I hope the comms link had an auto-destruct charge available and it worked. If not, this incident could cost the US a whole lot of time and money. Due to the Montreux Convention being enforced, I would imagine the US cannot dispatch a recovery operation for whatever remains of the MQ-9. Russia is not constrained against recovering the wreckage.
