If the runt of the litter is in anyway sick or injured it is possible that the adult females will abandon it, leaving it to die, yes. Chances are that if the runt has been torn apart as (grusome as it may be) it was already dead or it was accidently killed when to females were fighting over who would care for it.

Will the male beta always kill the female beta?

If you try to keep a male and female (or females) in the same tank permanently, the outcome is always going to be seriously injured or dead females. You cannot keep males with females. Under very carefully controlled circumstances during breeding the male will not kill the female (he will usually nip at her, but not seriously harm her.) But male and female in same tank = dead female.
