The answer is that they won't. Instead, it appears their Captain America: Civil War feud will stem from the idea that there should be someone regulating the actions of the Avengers and their cohorts. Marvel never follows comic book stories to the letter, and Civil War will be no different.
This news comes from /Films, who claims that the "accords" mentioned in the Ant-Man post-credit scene refer to the Sokovia Accords. Named for the city that was nearly obliterated by Stark's wayward Ultron, this new set of rules will allegedly provide some sort of superhero oversight. Didn't SHIELD used to have this firmly in hand?

This is particularly telling considering Marvel has never mentioned the Registration Act in any of it's releases.
"So it becomes more... it falls under that umbrella, rather than you have to take off your mask." It's not about the secret identity thing, as much as it is about, overall, who reports to who, and who can agree to oversight committee," Marvel Studio president Kevin Feige told /Films.
