You need to look at latex.lang to see which styles you need to specify.
For instance there is:

<style id="command" _name="Command" map-to="def:keyword"/>

which means that there is a latex:command style and that if that one is
not specified it will default to the style of def:keyboard.
So to override it you need to define latex:command, not latex:keyword.
