Unfortunately, that theory has a problem: Snape, being in Hogwarts, 
cannot apparate to the GG (Graveyard Gathering) due to the 
anti-apparition charms of Hogwarts. While he had time to leave the 
grounds when Harry grabs the cup in time to make it to the GG, he'd 
have to have expected it, which I don't think he had, and in 
particular, he didn't have time to go *back* to Hogwarts after Harry's 
escape in time to meet up with Dumbledore and McGonagall in their 
attack of Coruch!Moody.

Hope that helps,
