Again, source needed. The FTC investigated the interlocking boards of Apple and Google, but that had nothing to do with Google Voice--it had to do with people serving on both boards.

The FCC is questioning Google about Voice blocking certain numbers, but that has nothing to do with Android or anti-trust issues. The FCC also sent letters asking about the Google Voice rejection on the iPhone, but, again, it had nothing to do with Android or anti-trust concerns on Google's behalf.
