If we discovered that physical laws could not have been otherwise in our universe as a result of the big bang multiverse ideas would be dead

"nature could not have been otherwise, and with a fundamental theory we will be able to prove this" If this was true, would exist any possible way of changing the physical laws of our universe, so the multiverse would still be an option? Could a false vacuum decay into a true one do that?
