Pippin:
I don't think it's that entirely. Snape was trying to find out who
broke into his office, and Fake!Moody, by protecting Harry, made
Harry look very guilty indeed. But if it was Harry, then Snape can
stop hunting; the burglar is not the goblet-tamperer.
Of couse Harry eventually tells Sirius that he saw Crouch
breaking into the office. That information must have come to
Dumbledore, along with the information from Snape that
boomslang skin went missing. When DD discovers the
imposter, he expects to find polyjuice in the flask, (thus the
missing boomslang skin) and he knows to send for Winky.
