He didn't because the Catholic Church was correct. Most Church leaders, including the pope, agreed with Galileo's hypothesis but asked him to stop teaching it as fact unless he had absolute proof that it was correct. He could not provide proof but continued teaching it anyway. He even went so far as to publish insulting remarks about the pope who was, perhaps, his greatest supporter. Copernicus, the scientist who originally developed the theory before Galileo, had no problems with the Church because he did not teach it as scientific fact.
Of course, today we know that Galileo was correct in his thinking because of advancements made in science. However, at the time Galileo neglected to use diplomacy and that got him into hot water.
Galileo agreed with the idea of Nicolas Copernicus.
Galileo got into trouble with the Catholic Church, specifically with the Roman Inquisition. They accused him of promoting the heliocentric theory proposed by Copernicus, which challenged the geocentric view of the Church. Galileo's ideas were viewed as heretical and he was forced to recant his views under threat of imprisonment.
Galileo challenged church teachings by saying that the heliocentric model of the universe was trueThe Catholic Church charged him with heresy. Due to his support of the heliocentric or sun centered theory. Which directly opposed the Church accepted theory that the sun and planets revolved around the earth.
The Catholic Church, and more specifically the Church in Rome, never tried to murder Galileo. Galileo was a personal friend of the Pope, at that time, and, although he was tried for heresy, and told to stop teaching his theory as fact, as he had no proof, he was certainly never murdered.
Back in the time of Galileo, the people of Pisa didn't hand out awards. Galileo was denounced by the Roman Catholic Church for saying that life was made from the planets and the sun, instead of God crating everything.
Galileo was convicted in 1633 because he went up against the Roman Catholic Church. He disagreed with their beliefs, so the Church took him to court, found him guilty of heresy --going against a religion-- and then sentencing Galileo to house arrest, but for the rest of his life.

Galileo Galilei
Galileo was put in prison for writing about his findings. He had gone against the teaching of the Catholic church.
The Crime of Galileo posited that the Sun was the center of the universe instead of the Earth. The was directly opposed to the teaching of the Catholic Church, who deemed Galileo a heretic.
Galileo's work supporting the heliocentric model challenged the geocentric views held by the Catholic Church. The Church saw his ideas as heretical and forced him to recant his views under threat of excommunication. The conflict was resolved centuries later in 1992 when the Catholic Church formally acknowledged that Galileo was right and that the Church's judgment against him was a mistake.
