You don't need to have access to everything for it to be insider trading, just more than the general public. Lutnick would know what case they are making to the court, perhaps the confidence of the attorneys in winning as well as information on how the case was going.

Supreme Court transcripts of arguments are posted to supreme court.gov the same day the arguments are made:

There’s no secret sauce here - their guess as to how the case is going is as good as any outside observer, and based on the questions made by the justices.

All of that is based on public knowledge, including the confidence of attorneys.
