Note that Lightning Bolt will also not trigger Karmic Justice. While the Bolt is marking the damage on your planeswalker, State Based Actions are what will actually destroy it, and SBAs aren't spells or abilities either. It will trigger from Dreadbore or Hero's Downfall, but not spells that deal damage instead of directly destroying.
119.5. Damage dealt to a creature or planeswalker doesn't destroy it. Likewise, the source of that
damage doesn't destroy it. Rather, state-based actions may destroy a creature or planeswalker, or
otherwise put it into its owner's graveyard, due to the results of the damage dealt to that permanent.
See rule 704.
SBA is not a spell/ability and certainly not controlled by an opp
Also damage doesn't destroy planeswalkers, unless they are also creatures
704.5i If a planeswalker has loyalty 0, it's put into its owner's graveyard.
Basically, unless the spell or effect the opponent is using specifically says "destroy" (or the old school wording "Bury") then Karmic Justice will not trigger, regardless of what ends up happening to the permanent.
