Lincoln's actions caused the war just as much as John Browns' raid, the Kansas Nebraska act, or the Missouri compromise. You can keep going back, probably to the Declaration of Independence. The States who at the time had already seceded, had been drafting a constitution even as they sent peace delegations. War, at that point, was in all likely-hood inevitable as the United States would not recognise secession and the rebellious states were intent on leaving.
When made aware of Lincoln's plans to resupply the fort, which he made aware to SC Governor making its way up to Davis who then ordered Beauregard to demand the surrender once more and if it did not then to reduce it. Davis was fully aware of the consequences of such a move, as Lincoln made it clear the result if force was used.
