Injective hulls of residue fields of a local ring and its ring invariants by finite group action Let $R$ be a local ring, $m$ its maximal ideal and $k:= R/m$ its residue field. 
Suppose that a finite cyclic group $G= \mathbb{Z}/ m \mathbb{Z}$ has a linear nontrivial action on $R$. 
Let $R^G$ be a ring of invariant elements of $R$ by this action. 
Let $E:= E_R(k)$ be an injective hull of $k$ 
Question 1 Is $G$ naturally acts on $E$? 
Question 2 Is $E$ injective hull of $k$ as a $R^G$-module?
Actually I'm thinking the case where $R$ is the local ring of an isolated hypersurface singularity $(f=0)$ over $\mathbb{C}$ and $f$ is a $\mathbb{Z}_m$-eigenfunction. 
 A: In the case of a hypersurface of dimension $d$, or any Gorenstein singularity of dimension $d$, $E \cong H^d_{\mathfrak{m}}(R)$ (of course, this isomorphism is up to multiplication by a unit).  $G$ should act on $H^d_{\mathfrak{m}}(R)$ directly (you should even be able to do this explicitly via Cech cohomology).  This should be enough for question 1 in your setting.
For question 2, I'm pretty sure the answer is no in general.  In particular, the socle of $E$ as an $R^G$-module, is probably not 1-dimensional.  Note the socle of the injective hull of the residue field is always 1-dimensional (see for example Bruns and Herzog's book).
Let me give an example.  Suppose $R = \mathbb{C}[x,y]$, $\mathfrak{m}$ is the origin, and $G = \mathbb{Z}/2$ acts on $R$ by multiplying the variables by ${-1}$.  Then $R^G = \mathbb{C}[x^2, xy, y^2]$.  The socle (elements killed by the maximal ideal) of $H^2_{\mathfrak{m}}(R)$ as an $R$-module is just the Cech class $[1/(xy)]$.  The socle as an $R^G$-module however also includes the elements $[1/(x^2y)], [1/(xy^2)], [1/(x^2y^2)]$ since the relevant maximal ideal of $R^G$ is $(x^2, xy, y^2)$.
The point is that the socle as an $R^G$-module is all elements killed by $x^2, xy$ and $y^2$.
