There will be possibility of having proxy problem on your internet connection if that was not a problem then you should try to run your sdk manager exe as administrator mode to fixed the problem. if that alo no t worked then you can dowload the zip of adt update install through local path.

In most of case while updating the adt in eclipse it can corrupt your plugin in that case you have to change eclipse and have to do fresh installation with latest adt.
