Weston McKennie doubled Juve’s advantage shortly after half-time when Juan Cuadrado sent in a great pass and the U.S. international headed the ball into the roof of the net.
Rabiot took advantage of another precise cross from Cuadrado to make it 3-0 with a header in the 82nd minute and the Frenchman completed the rout in stoppage time.
Juventus moved up one place to seventh on 19 points, one above Inter who travel to Fiorentina on Saturday.
Empoli stayed 11th in the standings.
