the highest level a gem could get before this patch was level 26. level 20 gem + 1 to all gems + 2 to melee/fire/lightning/cold gems + 3 from a level 4 empower. If you can indeed increase the level of empower with vaal orbs, and can roll +2 to vaal gems on a weapon, you can have a level 29 gem. level 20 vaal gem + 1 to all gems + 2 to melee/fire/lightning/cold gems + 4 from corrupted empower + 2 to vaal gems.
30 - you forgot the base of 21 for it being corrupted.
That's even better, though!
Well the gem would have to be a vaal gem to benefit from the +2 to vaal gem implicit, and i don't know if you can get a level 21 vaal gem cause you can't use vaal orbs on a vaal gem since it's corrupt.
Vaal gems aren't corrupt, they're different versions of the original gem

i don't understand: what's the difference between a corrupted gem and a vaal gem? if no difference ,why do u need to apply a vaal orb on a gem already corrupted?
so far:
weapon with +1 local/+2 melee/+2 vaal gem.
all gem inside are corrupted so:
max empower provide 5 more ( +2 from lvl 3,+1 from local ,+2 from being a vaal corrupted gem)
your corrupted attack is increased by 5 (local, melee ,vaal)too
=> max lvl of 30
