The 12th amendment says the president of the senate (vp) counts the votes but the Electoral Count Act of 1887 handles disputes so the vp really can't do a lot to throw or modify an election.
Its not real clear either way. Anyone that tells you he can or can not is bullshitting you.
There is some precedence (PA Senate election that got thrown out in the 90s) and dueling in 1876. You also have the Trump EO that gives the classified DNI report to VP for election fraud.
