Probably not in scope for Project Zero? Or they find other stuff more interesting.

Security researchers don't work for free. I did some light searching and I couldn't find any sanctioned audits against Bitcoin core. The Bitcoin team should hire someone like trail of bits to do a multiple month audit.
