I don't think SMS will restrict the 2nd company to assign a COS. Don't think that intelligence is build in the system. Actually, the onus lies on you to ensure duplicate COS is not issued in your name. Below is copied from T2 Guidance document.
256. If you do not want to take up the job because you want to work for a different sponsor, you must ask the sponsor to withdraw the Certificate of Sponsorship. You must contact the sponsor in writing or by email and give it five working days to withdraw the certificate.
257. If the sponsor fails to do so, you should send a reminder. If the sponsor does not withdraw the Certificate of Sponsorship within a further five working days, you should contact us by writing to us at:
Sponsor Licensing Unit
UK Visas and Immigration
Home office
PO Box 3468
Sheffield
S3 8WA
258. You must provide:
your full name; and
your nationality; and
the name of the sponsor you no longer wish to work for; and
the Certificate of Sponsorship reference number you wish to be cancelled; and
the name of any other sponsor you wish to work for; and
the reason why you wish the Certificate of Sponsorship to be cancelled; and
the date you first contacted the sponsor to ask for the Certificate of Sponsorship to be cancelled; and
the date you contacted the sponsor again to remind them to cancel the Certificate of Sponsorship; and
a copy of any correspondence sent to your sponsor, which must clearly show who the correspondence was addressed to within the sponsoring organisation; and
any correspondence from that sponsor in connection with those requests (for example, any acknowledgement e-mails or letters).
We will cancel the Certificate of Sponsorship if necessary after discussions with the sponsor.
