How shortly (quickly/easily) you can do this depends on how many rules there 
are in the rules file, and maybe how good you are with some text filtering 
and replacement tools.

You need to capture all of the 'score' lines from the rule file, change the 
score values to what you want, and then put them into A NEW FILE, not the 
original file.

If you only want to raise the scores, and if you want to do it by the same 
amount for all of the rules (although this seems somewhat silly to me) you 
can do offset scores for all of the rules, as:

score SOME_RULE    +0.2
score SOME_OTHER_RULE    +0.2

A score line can have one score or 4 scores.  Since you are probably always 
using the same score set, a single score that will modify (or replace) all 
of the scores is usually sufficient when you are changing scores.
