No, NASA loves SpaceX and they wouldn't dump them over one failure, which let us remember do happen in space travel, Boeing had one with their crew module just recently.
Instead NASA would launch an intensive investigation, discover Boeing was behind it, and pass the data on to the Department of Justice which would indict the people responsible for murder, and that would be the the end of Boeing's space division.

That means it is far more likely the DOJ would do things right.
