First, the problem starts with Big Fazeek. He was the one who was being a jerk in the beginning. The others started to react to his behavior. He was rarely if ever polite (when not in front of the judges); he would yell and say some harsh, unnecessary things.
Second, he said himself that he was going to go provoke her. And even if she'd done something first, it's still wrong to do. Kicking someone when they're down is just not nice. I'm not defending the behavior of others towards Big Fazeek, keep in mind. I think most of them acted just as poorly to him, but he is the cause of the problems. I think that the people who handled the problem the best are either gone, or are Mo and Gaymer. When Big Fazeek insulted Mo for his poor performance in GT5, Mo didn't go off calling him names and all that.
As for War Princess, she did horribly and there was no way she was not going home. I know a lot of people bash the show, but it is a good opportunity. Last I heard, Cyrus has moved up into PR or something, and he's doing pretty well for himself. So losing can kinda suck. Maybe she shouldn't be as emotional, but to have someone intentionally come over to provoke her while she was crying is just low.
Basically, Big Fazeek is a jerk and he should have been sent home long before this episode. I don't feel bad for him at all. I don't think most of the others handled the problem well, but if he had been nice towards other people since the beginning, this wouldn't have happened.

yeah,but the show broke it's own rules,when they got rid of him,when his team won the challenge. That's something that I had a problem with.

That's something I can agree with. I don't know if there's a disclaimer somewhere saying that they reserve the right to kick you out of the competition at any time or not. If there is, then there's technically no problem in sending him home. If not, I disagree with the move simply because it means the rule is just useless anyway; they can send anyone home just cause they want to. Immunity would do nothing.
So, I should clarify that I'm not arguing that Sony did the right thing by sending him home when they did, in the manner that they did. I'm saying that I'm not sorry to see him go. The OP said he didn't do anything bad. I disagree. I think his behavior was very poor. But as for him being sent home after having immunity... Well, I don't know what they had to agree to in order to participate, so I can't say if they had the right to or not.
EDIT: Found a post in another thread on the PS forums:
"Immunity meant that for what happened in that challenge, he was safe. Both he and Mo chocolate were the worst in that challenge, but since their team won they were immune from being sent home FOR THAT CHALLENGE.
No where did Sony say that people were immune for their behavior. Fazeek was already warned the challenge before about his behavior. He chose to ignore the judges comment and continue being who he was. The judges saw fit based on his actions OUTSIDE OF THE COMPETITION that he has no place to be on the Testers, let alone get any more chances as participating, therefore they kicked him out.
So your points are pretty much invalid. He was immune from elimination for what took place in the go-kart competition, but nowhere did Sony ever mention that he was immune from his terrible team working attitude that went beyond the competition." - link (darkwonders, about 1/3 down the page)
So if you look at it that way, Sony didn't break the rules, as he wasn't sent home for being bad at the challenge, but for his behavior through the whole show. The whole thing is questionable though. I don't think we know enough to say for sure if Sony was right or not, since we don't know what agreement the contestants made when they signed up for the show.
