If you match somewhere and don’t show up for at least (45 days?) the minimum required it is a match violation
 
According to NRMP Waiver Policy: "The binding commitment shall be deemed to have been honored if the applicant remains in the training program through the first 45 days after the start date of the relevant appointment contract.An applicant who gives notice of resignation, resigns, or vacates a binding commitment within 45 days of the start date specified in the appointment contact shall be presumed to have breached NRMP policy absent a waiver from the NRMP.A program that terminates a resident within 45 days of the start date specified in the appointment contract shall be presumed to have breached this Agreement unless evidence is submitted through the NRMP waiver process sufficient to show that the program entered into the contract in good faith and the NRMP determines the program has a reasonable basis to be released from the binding commitment to the applicant "

Additionally, you're not even supposed to discuss, interview, or apply to another program without a waiver: ".Applicants who have matched to a program or who have accepted a position during SOAP shall not apply for, discuss, interview for, or accept a concurrent year position in another program prior to the NRMP granting the requested waiver. In addition, programs shall not discuss, interview for, or offer the position to any other candidate until either: (a) the applicant has informed the NRMP that the applicant will not accept the position if the NRMP denies the waiver and the program has been so notified by the NRMP; or (b) the NRMP grants the waiver.

Does "got into" mean the you're not actually in this situation yet? Because "got into" means "signed a contract with." So it's just a contracts question, which depends on your location and the wording of the contract. I'd recommend consulting with a lawyer to help explain your options and likely outcomes, should this hypothetical become reality.
