Lots of rules. E.g. two operators cannot be adjacent; if dividing by 2, the result of the prior calc cannot be an odd number; if diving by 3, the result of the previous calc can only be 3, 6 or 9 UNLESS it start with a 1 (in which case 12, 15, 18 are okay) or a 2 in which case.... etc etc etc. And then all of these rules have to be applied in order to each part of the initial equation (if there are multiple parts, of course). You're right that brute force may be faster but I'd still feel a lot smugger if I worked it out formulaically. The smugness would be earned. I wouldn't even know where to begin.
Also two operators can be adjacent. "3*-2+7=1" as an example. You would need to factor for that and make special exception for the minus sign, depending on its meaning. I would begin with a very large whiteboard and draw tree-based logic of all of the rules. Worth bearing in mind that whatever programme they are using, it already has all of those rules built in, so someone has done part of what would be needed already.

Yeah, I meant the second line was not a guess. The thing that got it for me was that I put the equals sign three from the right in the first row and it said purple, but gave me a green for the number two from right, meaning the equals sign had to go at least four from right. So it was clear it was a big multiplication. With the two greens I had, it was a process of elimination. I'll try the wordle derdle girdle shmerdle later on thanks.

I'm going to try it later and see if that helps. Well done on getting it in two!
