Phil answered part of your question, but he didn't address the real issue.

Your flaw here is assuming that "item" is an index.  It's not.  Given 
what you are showing there, self.appData.rules is a list that contains 
exactly one thing: a tuple of 5 strings.  So, your loop will iterate 
exactly once, and during that iteration, item will be a tuple.  A tuple 
is not a "long", hence the error.  I suspect you probably wanted to use 
enumerate(self.appData.rules) here, but as Phil pointed out, it's not 
really needed.

The other problem is in the 3rd parameter.  self.appData.rules contains 
one thing, not 5 things.  I can't tell exactly what you meant here, but  
I think you wanted:

    for item,strings in enumerate(self.appData.rules):
        idx = self.rulesList.InsertStringItem( sys.maxint, 0, strings[0] )
        self.rulesList.SetStringItem( idx, 1, strings[1] )
        self.rulesList.SetStringItem( idx, 2, strings[2] )
        self.rulesList.SetStringItem( idx, 3, strings[3] )
        self.rulesList.SetStringItem( idx, 4, strings[4] )
