If anyone ever contributed to this at the start since it was Foss, shouldn't he not be allowed to do that?

The article says he got permission from people who wrote the code to change the license. If they didn’t give permission then he has rewritten the code.

If they didn’t give permission then he has rewritten the code.

How does that work? Like, refactoring?

Yes, you throw away the code and write it again.
