Here are a few editorial suggestions, I think in general it needs a full read for grammar. Here's a couple I noticed in a quick read.
Note a typo in section 3.1 example 3
MUST NOST
should be "MUST NOT"
4.8
Example of a rule that checks if aria-errormessage is used <add>to</add> satisfy WCAG 2.1 success criterion 4.1.3 Status messages :
Recommendation
4.7
"...If there are no test targets, the outcome for the rule is inapplicable ...."
I suggest the term "not applicable" (or "nonapplicable" rather than "inapplicable" so the common short form "N/A" can be used.
