The FIA has published a copy of its decision on its website:

In short, it's devastating to McLaren.
Mike Coughlin was being fed data from Nigel Stepney far in excess of what we had already known, down to what lap Kimi Raikkonen was going to stop on in Bahrain.
Cooughlin fed secret data to Pedro De La Rosa and then on to Fernando Alonso, including brake system design and performance, weight distribution (down to 2 decimal points!) and other information that definitely gave McLaren an advantage.
Most of the new information came from McLaren e-mail, text messages, and phone calls. Also, the FIA received information from Italian Police investigating the case.
The FIA gave immunity to Mclaren's drivers for providing data, which is why they have not been bumped from the championship.
