Yes, to make it simpler, I just need to print the line of where the two files differ, and that must be printed to another file. Perhaps, where File2 differs from file1, and print the results of file 2 to the resultant file.

How would that be possible?

NAME
augenrules - a script that merges component audit rule files SYNOPSIS
augenrules [--check] [--load] DESCRIPTION
augenrules is a script that merges all component audit rules files, found in the audit rules directory, /etc/audit/rules.d, placing the merged file in /etc/audit/audit.rules. Component audit rule files, must end in .rules in order to be processed. All other files in /etc/audit/rules.d are ignored. The files are concatenated in order, based on their natural sort (see -v option of ls(1)) and stripped of empty and comment (#) lines. The last processed -D directive without an option, if present, is always emitted as the first line in the resultant file. Those with an option are replicated in place. The last processed -b directive, if present, is always emitted as the second line in the resultant file. The last processed -f directive, if present, is always emitted as the third line in the resultant file. The last processed -e directive, if present, is always emitted as the last line in the resultant file. The generated file is only copied to /etc/audit/rules.d, if it differs. OPTIONS
--check test if rules have changed and need updating without overwriting audit.rules. --load load old or newly built rules into the kernel. FILES
/etc/audit/rules.d/ /etc/audit/audit.rules SEE ALSO
audit.rules(8), auditctl(8), auditd(8). Red Hat Apr 2013 AUGENRULES:(8)
