ISS did assist, and IAC management KNOW they did. When ISS management returned from its real life jolly in London it acted immediately. MC relocated to Curse and requests for offices in the Marginis cluster were politely turned down. I was in convo with an MC director who flew there to rent the offices as he did so - Litom was full, so he took them in Utopia.
I don't know about the rest of IAC management, but none of that was ever communicated to me, so no I didn't know any of that, except ofc MC being based in utopia.

ISSN also permitted pirate forces to pass its gate camps on request from IAC management. Had my PC not crashed, I'd copy you a chat log where, DURING a fight with S*****rdly, IAC requested safe passage for them, and ISSN complied immediatly. Though with much grumbling on Vent about having to disengage from pirates.
The way I remember it ISS did not comply and our mercs had to get backup to eventually brute force their way through, maybe it looked otherwise to ISS, but not to us or our mercs.

Post war, ISS changed its charter to prevent the humiliation its Navy suffered whilst poised to leap into the fight in defence of its neighbour (ok, ok .. and refinery access - and I had a lot of named mods on sale in The Bottleshop). An argument started with management over the precise wording of the old charter and whether sucking all the cap out of a FIX dread whilst it was in siege mode outside an IAC POS was technically ultra vires, or constituted self defence. You may have believed the old BOB/ISS/MC jokes, but no one who knew at which end of a Citadel Torpedo to stand believed the ISS/MC relationship was founded on anything but isk and mutual respect and that mutual blue status lasted till the first contract MC took that had aims at variance from ISS's interests.

Damage to our relations was already done by the time any charter changes were made, can't change history
