Things can't move faster than light through space. The space itself has no such limitation. You can imagine an expanding balloon and ants walking on it that have a limit to how fast they can move relative to the surface of the balloon.

Then space itself is a thing, not a nothing, thus Theory of Relativity is wrong, because we can attach point to space itself. Chose your poison.
