Evidence for ... the investment being irrelevant?

Can't prove a negative but there's nothing about the story that required any kind of investment to accomplish any of the events described.



You made a positive claim that the two had nothing to do with one another. The kind of evidence that could prove that might include logs of conversations between Twitter execs and reps of Saudi investors.

I agree that nothing has come to light demonstrating that their was behind-the-scenes influence in aid of this. But absence of evidence is not evidence of absence.
