Called the wrong name for Best Picture.
They accidentally went out with Emma Stone's envelope for best actress, the award before.
She called "La La Land" as Best Picture.

They gave him the wrong card

No he didn't. He knew something was wrong and gave it to Dunaway to read. You must not be watching
ETA: nice edit

He shouldn't have been up there. He looked confused before he opened the envelope.

They gave him the actual winner card but forgot to switch it out because #oscarnotsowhite anymore.
But seriously I haven't seen either of those movies. I thought at it was the one about the black NASA ladies.

Also he wasn't the one that read it off. So can't really fault him.

The Russians gave him the wrong card. No doubt.

He knew it was the wrong card and was trying to figure out what to do, when Dunaway said "you're impossible" he showed it to her and she blurted it out.

so it's the woman's fault.
Always ruining the night and making a man have to explain himself.

Looking back it seems they handled it as best they could. Absolutely no one could have expected the duplicate best actress envelope to be mistakenly given to Beatty and Dunaway. If Beatty could have realized he had the wrong envelope he could have stopped everything and called out the two reps from PwC to tell them. That would have caused mass confusion for about 5 minutes 
I wonder if PwC survives being associated with the Oscars. I'm guessing the two reps for PwC will be on media today saying they screwed up or trying to explain it away.

They'll be fine. They've had a failsafe in place since Sir Laurence Olivier announced the winner without opening the envelope (he read the first nominee as the winner, which as luck would have it was the actual winner: Amadeus).
They have someone ready to run out if the wrong name is announced, which is what happened. My guess is that they draw the line at snatching the Oscars out of people's hands or pulling the mic away from them mid-speech.

And the "why would they have two envelopes for Emma Stone?" question.
There are two reps from Price Waterhouse, each has a full set of envelopes for every category. One is on each side of the stage, so no matter which side the presenters enter from, the appropriate envelope is ready for them. That's why there would be an extra best actress envelope sitting around when Emma Stone already had her envelope in hand.
