We had a site not get updated properly on a multi-site and couldn't downgrade back to the old version. I have not found a perfect path to upgrade, but the process I've used is:
1. Go to `/admin/config/system/field-encrypt/field-overview`. This lists all the encrypted fields on the site.
2. Retrieve the values of these fields or make sure you have them on hand already (also perform a database backup). There is a "Decrypt" button on the field-overview page, but I could not get it to work.
3. Uninstall the `field_encrypt` module
4. Re-install the `field_encrypt` module. We use config management, so I did this with importing config with drush instead `drush ci` and `drush updatedb`.
5. Go to `/admin/config/system/field-encrypt/process-queues` and click the button to process the queues.
6. Re-fill in the values for the fields you have encrypted.
Perhaps there's a better way to do this, but this worked for our needs.

Going to close this as a won't fix because no one has done the work over the years. And it is not a priority now.
