Whatever you do, do not allow yourself to feel like a helpless victim. That's what losers do. You are not a loser. But if you allow yourself to think like a loser you are finished. Not just in this job, but in life. Decide what you really want first. Do you really genuinely want to stay? Sounds like the place is a little corrupt. I wouldn't want to stay there. But if you do, then own that choice and don't let anyone else tell you to run away. There are an infinite number of ways in which you can manifest the future that you desire. In workplaces that have been infested by people who care more about getting for themselves than giving something amazing to the world, you're going to have to play the political game. I avoid those kinds of workplaces because I find doing so repulsive, but if you really want to stay, that's what you're going to have to do. That means forming alliances and destroying your enemies. This guy who has taken action against you is doing so because he feels threatened by you. You could try to repair your relationship with him. Or you could take action to destroy him. Decide which you want to do. It sounds like you are in the right. Know that a man who has right on his side, and who is absolutely confident and determined to do what is right no matter the cost is absolutely terrifying to the typically cowardly types who climb the corporate hierarchies at most companies. Most will bend under the slightest threat you intend to stand up for yourself and take action against them. You wield a lot more power than you think you do. Just believe in yourself and do what is right because it is right and people will rally to support you.
