This is determined by the syntax file, probably
$VIMRUNTIME/syntax/python.vim in this case. (You can check this by
looking at the output of
:scriptnames
after loading a python file.) Using the example under
:help synID()
I find that "from" is tagged as pythonPreCondit, ditto for "import".
Now,
:hi pythonPreCondit
:hi PreCondit
:verbose hi PreProc
shows that the colors for these words come from the PreProc group, which
for me is defined in $VIMRUNTIME/syntax/syncolor.vim ; you can override
that in mycolors.vim if you want. A similar exercise shows that "for"
is colored as a Statement, not a Keyword ... but
:hi Keyword
shows that Keyword links to Statement.
