Facebook would file a counter-claim, project would be reinstated by GitHub (in 10-14 days as required by law) and OP would have to sue Facebook to escalate. DMCA is of little use to smaller entities without money for litigation.

The counter-claim has to be made under penalty of perjury, so Facebook and its lawyers may not do it if they are actually violating the licence.
That only applies if they get sued by OP, otherwise there is no risk to them.
