Question Coil mount >> technique/torque value?

I was swapping a new coil pack with one of the existing ones (right front cylinder[don't know the numbers?]) to test if it's working (one cylinder at a time - to diagnose poor engine performance). As I was putting the new one in, I noticed (I didn't notice when I changed all plugs about 3 months ago) that the coil turns quite a bit as the bolt is tightened! My questions:

1. Is the coil turning (at least 1/4 inch) during tightening of the coil mounting bolt something to worry about? It seems like it's turning enough to really put pressure on the plug(s)! Should I (we) support the one side (under the head of the coil) against the cam (rocker) cover to limit the movement?

2. Whaz the tork spek?

THANKS GUYS, Jim
