Maul claims he still serves Sidious, Sidious claims Maul is deceiving him because he is now a rival, then precedes to hold him against the wall with telekinesis while laughing. The context makes it perfectly clear. Maul is a rival because he doesn't serve Sidious any longer, not because they are close in power, because they are not.

False. Maul became a threat to Sidious hence his personal involvement in the matter. We later see Talzin back this up in sod the continuation to this story. Thanks for playing.

At the beginning of the fight before all this starts, before he shows his disappointment that maul is attempting to decide him, he looks at savage. He can sense tha savage is his apprentice. He also goes on to(after killing savage mind you) tell maul about the "reality of the Sith" and tells him their can only be two. Dave Filoni even goes on to reference this. Add this to how Maul is completely dominated by Sidious even with the aid of his brother, and he still couldn't defeat or even come close to defeating Sidious.

Rival-a person who is competing for the same object or goal as another, or who tries to equal or outdo another
Dictionary.com
Rival-a person or thing that tries to defeat or be more successful than another
Merriam Webster
Rival-One who attempts to equal or surpass another, or who pursues the same object as another; a competitor.

Rival-A person or thing competing with another for the same objective or for superiority in the same field of activity

etc.
In no way does Sidious calling Maul "a rival" imply parity.
