I would like to know why message rules do not work on all email just some?
I've got words like "unsubscribe" and "AVG" "Love" and other stuff and it
does not filter the text in most messages. There are other words also those
are just examples. These words are to be move to the deleted folder, but most
are not.

Did you set up rules to filter on words found in the subject line, or use
the
harder to find method for filtering on words anywhere after the headers?
 
It is set up to look for word or words in the body of the email and move them
to the deleted file.
 
Make sure that the rule contains the action "Stop processing more rules" and
that it is near the top of the list of rules.
