Can't remember where I picked this up but if you are feeling reckless you can force libraries onto the same sdk by adding:

subprojects {
    afterEvaluate {project ->
    // force libs to use recent buildtools
        if (project.hasProperty("android")) {
            android {
                compileSdkVersion = 27  // change to match your desired version
                buildToolsVersion = "27.0.3" // ....
            }
        }
    }
}

to your root android/build.gradle. Hasn't failed me so far after a react-native-git-upgrade. ymmv
