Heavily depends on locale and what the employment contract says.

But Musk did publicly promise severance, then didn’t deliver. That would almost certainly be breach of contract.

And also given that Twitter universally refused to pay severance in all markets, including those with mandatory severance, I suspect Twitter’s decision isn’t coming from a legally sound place.
