Didn't this happen in Danish waters? I can't see them allowing Russia into Danish waters to make the repairs on a pipeline that wasn't being used anyway.
I wouldn't write off it being a false flag by Russia, but it seems like the risk vs. reward trade off for such a thing wouldn't be great. Sneaking into NATO territory to destroy piece of infrastructure that wasn't being used and would benefit them more than anyone if it was allowed to be used doesn't seem to be practical. Not to mention that the ordinary person at the street level isn't going to be motivated or moved too much by it.
They would be better off targeting something on their own territory if they really wanted to rally people for the war.
