Russia has been swallowing some bitter pills as of late. This situation is really forcing Russia to decide if they are a unique or really becoming "part" of the west. In one hand they can "partner" with NATO and be part of the NATO's solution. On the other hand they can look at NATO's actions as a barbarous attack on a tiny nation in their back yard. The Russian people feel this "split", and that is also why NATO should proceed with caution.

As you suggest, Russia may not be able to easily act against NATO on this issue. If they cannot act outwardly against NATO they may act inwardly with great civil unrest. This alone is not in the best interest of the west since chaos in Russia may mean chaos in the management of the 35,000 odd nuclear weapons.
