It is hard to say how facebook would approach the issue of creation of fake facebook accounts for this game. Given there are many hundreds of millions of accounts, a few hundred EPIC users may not bother them. After all these are not being used for deception for “bad” reasons.

However, they may consider any mis-use to be an issue, have a look through accounts associated with EPIC users (or adapt their existing software to identify this type of mis-use) and query some accounts.

Either way, it really looks like intertwining EPIC with facebook as the game creators have done has had some really negative consequences, as @colkurtz has outlined, particularly among young players. I have my own issues with facebook, but turning away a large part of your audience must be a big concern for them. In the end, I think an in-house system created by rovio would be much more useful for the players and they should have considered other approaches for marketing.
