Does Judaism teach that the soul cannot rest until the body turns to dust?
In the movie "To Dust" they claim that "Judaism teaches that the soul cannot rest until the body turns to dust."
Is there any basis for this claim?

There are 2 verses which allude to this, but don't directly make this claim. Job 34:14-15 and Ecclesiastes/Kohelet 12:7

See Igros Moshe 3:143 which explains the prohibition for one to bury someone in a mausoleum, because it causes great anguish the the body.
