Why isn't OpenAI being "punished" for the hack on Hugging Face?

Recently, Hugging Face was the target of a hack by AI agents run by OpenAI. As I understand, the agents were trying to pass a hacking challenge. Their solution was to try and find the answer key, so they took some data from Hugging Face.

If some random person was to get caught hacking like this, wouldn't they be sued and maybe criminally prosecuted? How come OpenAI gets away with an apology? Just because they're important in some sense?
