Two things here: 1) They can’t match the signatures again. That’s done when the ballot is first processed by county workers, and once the envelope is gone, there’s nothing on the ballot with a signature. https://twitter.com/realdonaldtrump/status/1328338241284616193

2) The “consent decree” is the focus of the Lin Wood lawsuit, and I tried to explain what’s going on there yesterday. https://twitter.com/jisaacraymond/status/1328068791205572608
The real thing with the consent decree is SoS agreed to issue an “Official Election Bulletin” directing counties to conduct a more rigorous signature matching review/rejection process than is prescribed by law. 1/2
They might have an argument it was inappropriate, but I don’t think the argument an “Official Election Bulletin” materially changed actual law will hold up (seems it’s just official guidance). I’ll be interested to see what a judge does with it, though, as I’m no law expert. 2/2
