CEOs can get away with a lot if they're successful; Elon Musk is a good example. That only goes so far, though. If he wins the trademark lawsuit, he can probably do whatever he wants. If he loses, there's a shareholder lawsuit, or he continues escalating then at some point he'll be removed. One can only hope.

Matt has step in it once. In the context OSS Matt's behaviour is deplorable. His insistence on digging a deeper and deeper hole is freightening. It's digital self-emmolation. It's professional suicide.
