If they signed the offer, is that not a contract? Do they not have a pretty clear breach of contract case here?
No, the offer doesn’t bind parties to sign a contract, it only cements contract details in advance. Both parties can walk away at any point without any explanation.
It’s like a price sticker in the supermarket - it tells you how much something costs and the retailer must respect that. But you are not forced to buy anything upon seeing a sticker.

of course, but this is like the cashier saying: nah we won’t accept your purchase, the security guard will escort you out of the shop
No, it’s not like that. But guess what? The cashier can tell you exactly that! They can boot you out at any point in time without providing any reason.
If they have a signed contract, they’ll sue and quickly win. If they don’t, they won’t.

Yeah, I guess I forgot where I lived for a moment and took for granted my union contract.
