Nakamura has some previous form regarding false cheat allegations -

From the few clips I saw of him regarding this matter there were a couple of 'nudge nudge wink wink' going on but
nothing outright. It looks like he has learned a thing or two about how far he can go.
Yes Chris, a mess and speculation is the name of the game. Can I have a go? My guess is;
Carlsen did not notice anything untoward during the game but after it someone mentioned or Carlsen
remembered this 2600 player has been banned for cheating online. Then he watched the interview...
His opening was busted and 'Must be embarrassing for the World Champion to lose to such an idiot like me'
(I bet that did not sit well with Magnus.)
A later night phone call to organisers about possible foul play.
Before the next round security was beefed up (which appears to have happened.)
Magnus turns up just before the next round with an either he goes or I walk out ultimatum.
That is my 'what a mess' guess.
