I don't think empathy itself will be ported to Ubuntu Touch (well, it always 
can happen through the community) but the messaging app on Ubuntu Touch is 
based on telepathy. Which means, at some point it should support all the chat 
protocols supported by telepathy (or empathy for that matter) directly 
integrated into the rest of the phone's messaging capabilities.

Somewhere I read about an attempt to port the N9's whatsapp app to Ubuntu 
Touch, but no idea what's the current state there.
