If the accusation is a manifestation of bias against the employee based on a protected classification or activity, there may be legal recourse. If the employee is represented by a union, there may be grievance or appeal procedures available. Employees are limited by principles of "at will" employment.

Your rights are to find a new job. You can be terminated for any or no reason. So unless the termination was because you are a member of a protected class or you are a member of a union, you have no right to the job.

Generally, if you are a employee at will, very little. The principle is that if you can quit your job, your job can quit you unless there is some special and protected reason for holding otherwise. Inappropriate behavior is not protected.
