Wars are part of the game. Few are waged to grief a weak target, often it comes as a result of some affront or (sometimes unintended) territorial / economic competition.
Well, if it is territorial economic competition, and everyone is leaving the target corp, it seems you have won your war, doesn't it? Why would you want to continue?
If it is a personal thing (like an affront), you *are* griefing if you want to continue to harass the target even if they made clear (by joining an NPC corp in this case) that they don't want anything to do with fighting you.

So, remaining a target for a few days seems reasonable. Then you merely run the risk you would have run for the first week of the war anyway.
What would that gain you? Would the territorial dispute be decided if you can attack them for a few days after they have left the corp?

Also, I cannot regard the people who run off to NPC or new player corps to escape wars, as innocent parties. It may be a genuine expression of a desire to avoid PVP at any cost, but there are rules against dodging wars, so it's not as if I am saying anything new in wishing to see them enforced.
So, civilians that leave their home and country to flee a warzone are not considered 'innocent parties' by you? You seem pretty brutal and harsh.

If people don't want PVP, they can stay in a noobcorp full time, instead of using them as a temporary refuge when it suits them.
Gasp, are there no people who want to be in a small community of like-minded people AND don't want to get shot at by others? I never knew...
Just come out and say you want to be able to attack another of your choice anywhere, there's no shame in that. Just don't begin mentioning territorial disputes and such. You seem to be looking for a fight, and when you targets run away you don't like it. Understandable, but has nothing to do with faulty game mechanics or exploits.
As some people said, if they cannot/don't want to leave their corps, they will just refuse to log on or sit in a station when you are logged on.
