Not legally. They would have to prove that they were being targeted and fired for being pregnant.
Laying off half the company is pretty strong evidence you aren't targeting based on protected class.

My money is on settlement to prevent any judge from seeing how the firing decisions were made.
Any method of firing is allowed as long as it wasn't based on protected class, even if they pulled names randomly from a hat. The person suing would need hard evidence. Firing based on lack of fanboy attitude is also perfectly legal. Age and disability are not.
Anything is possible, but my money is on nothing happening.
