There are no "two" relays for one fingerprint since relays are
"addressed" (named) by their keys (fingerprints). If one starts another
relay with the same key it will be treated by the authorities as new
descriptor for this key, i.e. another one will be pushed out from consensus.
From another side, only two relays (read keys) are allowed per one IP
address. Thus other than two relays on given IP address will also be
pushed out from consensus.

Out of curiosity, I wonder how the Tor network handles this? Do the directory

There is no surprise. You've probably just cloned DataDirectory which
contains long-term relay private key and edited only torrc (nickname,
ports, whatever). Try to clear DataDirectory out and restart tor - it
should regenerate the keys.

rm -rv keys/

new keys -> new fingerprint -> new identity
