Is saboteur really the right word for that though? Maybe it's just the association I've made but that to me denotes something much more active and directly damaging than just leaking damaging information.

That's literally the accusation, that he doctored information he then gave to jurnalist to harm the company

Not what I meant, I mean actually damaging something not just reputation or stock price. Even just deleting some critical file that had to be restored from a backup but just releasing information about the company doesn't fit my mental model of sabotage.
