It's actually Everyone has became OR
Everybody has became (not become or becomes).

This are the reasons:
Reason 1:
Everyone, Everybody, Anything Anybody, Everything, Anybody, Anything according to rules of Concord are all Singular subjects and according to one of the rules All Singular subjects and objects go with singular Verbs, and vice versa.

Reason 2:
Anytime an Auxiliary verb preceded the main verb in a sentence, the main verb automatically changes to a past participle (not present tense or past tense). So in this case "Has" is the auxiliary verb and "Become" is the main verb which must change to past participle. Hence, Everybody has became OR Everyone has became

Kindly note that he's wrong on his "Reason 2".

It is "Everyone has become..."
And "Everybody has become..."

This is because the past participle of "become" is also "become", and not "became".
"Became" is the past tense, but what you need after "has" is the past participle, not the past tense.
