We all know this?  Uhmmm, I guess I'd have to say I don't know this, 
as as I'm approximately one five billionth of everyone on the planet 
and one twenty thousandth or so of the list, I guess that means we 
all DON'T know this.  

A spy in the Order?  Why?  I don't recall anything that has happened 
that definitively points to such.  Sure a lot of the present Order's 
secrets were spilled -- by Kreacher.  There isn't any mystery about 
that, nor any need for further information.

Do you mean a spy in the Order in its previous incarnation?  Once 
again, I suppose there could have been, and I guess there definitely 
was if Pettigrew was an Order member.  But we don't know if he was 
or not, and it really isn't very important.  Snape's role in 
pinpointing James, et. al. has been explained, and Pettigrew need 
not have been an Order member to have been the Secret Keeper.

Someone very powerful working with and for LV?  Sure, several such 
someones.  But none of them (leaving Snape and Pettigrew aside for 
the moment) have anything to do with the Order.

Could there be a spy in the Order?  I guess so, but I don't see 
where that explains anything, particularly.
