For now, Orbot does prompt you to disable the battery optimization features for Orbot when you enable a hidden service. Otherwise, I think it is up to the app server/process itself to handle their own wake lock needs, depending on what kind of availability they are expected to have.
ChatSecure/Zom already does quite a bit of wakelock management for instance, and so if we added a Ricochet, Briar or other protocol support into that stack, I wouldn't expect Orbot to directly handle it. Does that make sense?
