p4a/buildozer already packages python(2 or 3) and with it every library that's built-in in python. That means every part of the standard library. I don't recall any stripping of python libs, so...

Python is necessary for Kivy to run, therefore requirements = kivy should already satisfy the requirement for <insert any python built-in library here>.

When a pure-python library is requested through pip, it searches pypi and that re seems to return this which doesn't seem to have any .zip or tarball so I don't think you will install it even with basic pip install re.
