The ordering is specified in the XML schema snippet on Page 25 of my copy
of the spec:
<xs:element name="Rule">
<xs:complexType>
<xs:sequence>
<xs:element ref="sld:Name" minOccurs="0"/>
<xs:element ref="sld:Title" minOccurs="0"/>
<xs:element ref="sld:Abstract" minOccurs="0"/>
<xs:element ref="sld:LegendGraphic" minOccurs="0"/>
<xs:choice minOccurs="0">
<xs:element ref="ogc:Filter"/>
<xs:element ref="sld:ElseFilter"/>
</xs:choice>
<xs:element ref="sld:MinScaleDenominator" minOccurs="0"/>
<xs:element ref="sld:MaxScaleDenominator" minOccurs="0"/>
<xs:choice minOccurs="0" maxOccurs="unbounded">
<xs:element ref="sld:LineSymbolizer"/>
<xs:element ref="sld:PolygonSymbolizer"/>
<xs:element ref="sld:PointSymbolizer"/>
<xs:element ref="sld:TextSymbolizer"/>
<xs:element ref="sld:RasterSymbolizer"/>
</xs:choice>
</xs:sequence>
Rules contain a Sequence (or ordered list) with <ogc:Filter> above line
symbolizer.
It looks like a call to normalize on the rule should fix the order.
Otherwise you can look to fix the python.
The second easiest way is to ignore the validator (GeoServer is relaxed
about the SLD it will ingest) and proceed.
