How to revive rubber plant with droopy leaves?

Hi everyone,

just wondering if anyone would know what’s wrong with my rubber plant?

I recently discovered the soil had curl grubs and they were obviously attacking my plant. So I changed the soil in the pot to get rid of all the curl grubs. 
It has been about one week now and I thought the droopy leaves would maybe spring back up but they haven’t. 

Does anyone know what might be wrong with it? It has been living outside for over a year now but I have realised they prefer to be indoors. Please correct me if wrong! Before I bring it inside I want to make sure it is disease and pest free. Leaves look like they’re burnt so maybe too much sun? Have attached some pictures.

Look forward to your thoughts and expertise!

Hello @Marcia_L 

Thanks for sharing your questions about your rubber plant. It could be that the soil does not have enough nutrients, it could be over or under watered. Can you please tell us how often you water the plant and when was the last time you fertilized it. In the meantime, I propose using Seasol and putting it in a bright area but not in direct sunlight. 

I also suggest having a quick look at this guide - How to diagnose a sick plant by @Noelle.
