ESP32 WIFI and MQTT with freeRTOS or no RTOS

Hello. I am working with multiple ESP32 devices that constantly read sensor values, publish/receive MQTT messages and toggle GPIOs. I have implemented the code without using any RTOS, but wondering whether the RTOS would be beneficial here?

I am though little bit confused how would I implement RTOS since MQTT client requires a function
Code:
client.setCallback(callback);
and the callback function:

Code:
void callback(char* topic, byte* payload, unsigned int length) {

  Serial.print("Message arrived [");
  Serial.print(topic);
  Serial.print("] ");

  char message[length + 1];


  strncpy (message, (char*)payload, length);

  message[length] = '\0';
  Serial.println(message);

  if (strcmp(topic, ping_topic) == 0){
   
    if (strncmp(message, "ON", 2) == 0){
      digitalWrite(LED_YELLOW, 1);
      Serial.println("red led_turned_on");
    }
    if (strncmp(message, "OFF", 3) == 0){
      digitalWrite(LED_YELLOW, 0);
      Serial.println("red led_turned_off");
    }
  }


  if (strcmp(topic, status_topic) == 0){
    if (strncmp(message, "GOOD_JOB", 8) == 0){
      //toggle_led(LED_YELLOW, 15);
      //toggle_led_strip(5);
     
     
    }
  }
 
  if (strcmp(topic,number_to_pick_topic) == 0){ //if number_to_pick received, means the complecataion has been scanned and initiate the pick_to_light
    number_to_pick = atoi(message);
    Serial.print("number to pick = ");
    Serial.println(number_to_pick);
    //OLED_display(item_inside.quantity,number_to_pick);
    }

   
  if (strcmp(topic,ota_topic) == 0){
    //start_OTA();   
    }

  if (strcmp(topic,item_inside_topic) == 0){ //if number_to_pick received, means the complecataion has been scanned and initiate the pick_to_light

    //parse_item_inside((char*)payload);
  }
}
[code/]
Callback automatically gets called whenever I receive a message. Im not sure how would that be implemented in RTOS?

Have anyone implemented RTOS for wifi/mqtt funcionality?
