There is no fix, just remove the PPA. – mikewhatever Sep 19 '20 at 20:00

Are you running Ubuntu 20.10? Groovy Gorilla has not been officially released yet, so the PPA won't have a release file yet. Also, Ubuntu 20.10 is not supported and is off-topic. – Terrance Sep 19 '20 at 21:10

Delete the ppa from your machine...
cd /etc/apt/sources.list.d/
sudo rm webupd8*
Then update your sources.
sudo apt update
Note, since you will not be able to update Java, you may want to uninstall the outdated package from this PPA.
sudo apt autoremove purge oracle-java8-installer
