We don't know who started the fires. It could have been a planned burning to turnover the fields that got out of hand. I can't recall that open sequence of dialogue, but it certainly could have been a copycat to get an investigation going.
Off topic also, but I can't believe this thought didn't cross my mind earlier, even if it totally ends up having no bearing on the ending, but you gotta hand it to Rust's insistence they get him a 6-pack of his Lone Star otherwise he had nothing to say.
Fyi, drinking or being drunk, especially when they provided / went out and bought it, is completely inadmissible and evidence obtained from leads they follow up on could also be barred from evidence if they did ever decide to go after Rust and charge him with something.
