Laertes didn't have any "important realisations" during his duel with Hamlet. The duel only took place as a means for Claudius to have Hamlet killed, disguised as Laertes' need to seek satisfaction for the deaths of his father and sister. Laertes had forgiven Hamlet, but needed to uphold his reputation and honour, hence the duel.
He is stabbed by the tip of Laertes' poisoned rapier during their dual. Not necessarily... He is wounded by the rapier, but then stabs Laertes, and kills his uncle before he himself dies.
They both died, though Laertes died first. During the duel, Laertes cuts Hamlet with the sword that has poison on it, but when they accidently drop their swords they got mixed up and got each others sword. Hamlet then cuts Laertes with the sword that has poison on it.
