How and why did the Italian earthquake occur?

The Italian earth quake was most probably caused by the movement of the Eurasian and African tectonic plates. Convection currents in the earths mantle cause these plates to move which in turn causes stresses at the plate boundaries. When these stresses are released the movement is very sudden. This is the movement said to be an earthquake.
