The regex can be adjusted for a proper SmPL constraint as desired.

declarer xyz ~= MODULE_(?:AUTHOR|DESCRIPTION|LICENSE);

-xyz(...);
I guess, but it still has a disadvantage from a performance point of view.
Coccinelle only processes files that contain all of the words that
are needed for the semantic patch to match, but it doesn't collect any
information when there are regular expressions.
I am surprised that you point out such an interesting implementation
detail here.
You rule would process all files, while the rule that gives the names
explicitly would only process the files that contain those names.
Can your software development tool be improved in this aspect?
