Are you intentionally forgetting the part where Zuckerberg is working for the Winkelvosses, yet not performing any work for them, and coding a competing website at the same time, then launching his site, and telling the Winkelvosses he can't work for them any longer, because of their problem code?

What actually are the rules about that in this situation?

Well, Zuckerberg eventually paid the brothers $65 million dollars (in Facebook stock), after his attorneys advised him he would not do well in a jury trial (according to the movie).
