The Red Luas is only operating between Tallaght and Smithfield due to (another) fire in Abbey Street. Dublin Bus is accepting tram tickets in the affected area.

Surely they could have provided some service between the Point and Abbey Street?

The points at Abbey Street only allow for a tram to run Connolly bound and return to the outbound platform
You cannot depart the outbound platform Connolly bound, its not signalled

Can things be operated manually from the points to Abbey Street? What do the rules say?

Those points are spring loaded trailable points
There is no traffic signal to allow departure safely The fallback position in Connolly - Point but Connolly is closed for the next week or so
