Hello, I haven't had time to look into this but this might not be as straightforward as it looks like. An attempt has been made to introduce insertRule in https://github.com/USBGuard/usbguard/pull/480.

Thanks a lot for your work on this. However, I don't think we should merge support for inserting at the beginning of the rule set. Instead, I would be happy to review a patch that implements inserting a rule at any specified position in the list, rather than just at index 0. We would not fix the original problem. For example to insert to the end of a specific ruleset within a file from the rules.d folder.
