Sports got into bed with gambling formally and this stuff will just grow and grow. They don't care. It's $$$.
Maybe we are growing out of sports as a culture. That would be a net win.

Nothing should be done. Of course someone had inside information. Vegas sportsbooks have operated off of inside information from the beginning. It's not illegal, it's due diligence.
No one insisted that the books set the Super Bowl prop bets in February. You think they are going to refund the bet to someone who bets on Green Bay to win the Super Bowl, only to see Rodgers retire or go somewhere else?
Heck, a couple of years ago I made nice money betting that Tampa would win the Super Bowl at about 35-1, on the outside chance that Tampa would get Brady. I made the same bet on San Diego that year, and that paid squat, but I didn't see any refunds coming my way.
The books can do what they've always had the right to do. Refuse to take bets from people they thing are sharps.
