There's this:
There have been reports that the Slavas were built with large quantities of flammable material, and their damage control systems were poorly designed.
Moskva was in refit through most of the 1990s, returning to become flagship of the Black Sea Fleet. The second unit, Marshal Ustinov, commissioned in 1986, serves with the Northern fleet. It has been in overhaul since the mid-1990s. Overhaul completed in 2016. Varyag (formerly the Chervona Ukraina) was commissioned into the Pacific Fleet in 1989. Due to limited funding since 1990 it operated at reduced readiness. Its overhaul was completed in 2008. The fourth unit was launched in 1990 as the Admiral Lobov, but was transferred incomplete to the Ukrainian Navy. Renamed Ukraina, it was planned to become the Ukrainian fleet flagship, but was never completed due to limited funding. For a number of years this 4th ship of the class is awaiting for its disposal.

Then what could be a swipe at the Russian Navy from USN:
MOSKVA was a "high-value unit" and the bigger Kirov-class ADMIRAL NAKHIMOV is still not at Sea Trials even though she's been under refit for years herself
Name Laid down Launched Commissioned Status
Admiral Ushakov (ex-Kirov) 1974 1977 1980 laid up
Admiral Lazarev (ex-Frunze) 1978 1981 1984 laid up
Admiral Nakhimov (ex-Kalinin) 1983 1986 1988 undergoing repairs since 1999
Petr Veliky (ex-Yuri Andropov) 1986 1996 1998 active, in service
Kuznetsov (ex-Dzerzhinsky) - ? -
planned, but never completed

Not sure about the weather but maybe some prep work was done wrong and something gave way, like the packing around the shaft or a pipe at a sea-suction for the boilers

Here's some more form a maritime site. No confirmation the ship actually sank
Russian Flagship Moskva Sinks During Salvage Tow
Reuters April 14, 2022
By Pavel Polityuk (Reuters) – Russia’s lead warship in the Black Sea sank on Thursday, Russia’s defense ministry announced, after what Ukraine said was a missile strike and Russia described as an explosion of ammunition on board.
The loss of the Moskva, the flagship in Russia’s Black Sea fleet, occurred as it was being towed to port in stormy weather, Russian news agencies quoted the defense ministry as saying. The sinking was a fresh blow to Moscow’s military campaign as it readied for new assaults in east and south Ukraine that were likely to define the conflict’s outcome.
Russia’s defense ministry said earlier that over 500 crew aboard the Soviet-era missile cruiser were evacuated after ammunition exploded. It did not acknowledge an attack and said the incident was under investigation.
Ukraine said it hit the warship with a Ukrainian-made Neptune anti-ship missile. Reuters was unable to verify any of the statements, including whether the ship had sunk.
The United States said it did not have enough information to determine whether the Moskva was hit by a missile.
