Lets look at the lines:

# __MIME_ATTACHMENT also used in 20_meta_tests.cf
body __MIME_ATTACHMENT          eval:check_for_mime('mime_attachment')

# __MIME_ATTACHMENT defined in 20_html_tests.cf
body __NONEMPTY_BODY    /\S/
meta EMPTY_MESSAGE      !__MIME_ATTACHMENT && !__NONEMPTY_BODY
describe EMPTY_MESSAGE  Message appears to have no textual parts and no
Subject: text

The description is incorrect in my view. The subject is not even tested.
 I can not see that much else wrong. But it seems SA is still raising
the flag.

A sample message taken from quarantine that is marked as EMPTY_MESSAGE:
