Twitter should be seen as an asylum if you ask me. But yes, if they leaked numbers from third parties not involved in Twitter at all, there should be severe legal consequences.

But I doubt there is much incentive to even create a legislative basis for such transgressions. Complicated topic to be fair, but we will only see improvements if there are severe penalties for "loosing" data. Since no system is safe, there is only the alternative left not to collect info you do not need.
