If qoutes are removed and internal spaces are invalid, how could ":(){␣:|:&␣};:"@example.com be valid?

Presumably the space between quotes is "escaped", meaning it's supposed to act like any other character.

Yeah they're processed, but not passed through.

Not too sure, but a previous one says spaces are allowed in comments. I would assume the {} is similar?
