After this change, all custom rules which are dependent on AWS policies such as "S3Bucket should not have BucketPolicy with [ Statement with [ ( Action has ( "s3:Delete*" ) or Action has ("S3:Delete*") or Action has ("S3:*") or Action has ("s3:*") ) and Effect eq "Allow" and Principal has ( "*" ) and Conditions len ( ) eq 0 ] ]" is now rewritten like "S3Bucket should not have BucketPolicy with [ Statement with [ ( Action with [ value like "(?i)s3:Delete" or value like "(?i)S3:\*" ] ) and Effect eq "Allow" and Principal with [ value eq "*" ] and Conditions len ( ) eq 0 ] ]".
