The file is inside a .zip file, which is a compressed archive. You may need to get the file out of there for Notepad to be able to do its thing. The easiest way to do that on Windows would probably be to just drag the file out of the .zip to some other folder (or the desktop), make your edits, then drag it back into the place it came from and tell Windows to overwrite the old one with the edited one when it asks if that's what you want to do.
Note, if you've never worked with the Python language before, that the code's indentation level is important. And that the indentation has to be done with the same characters throughout the file (so if the python file uses spaces to indent the other existing lines, your new line needs to use spaces too). This is an easy thing to mess up and Calibre's error message may not be particularly informative if it happens.
This little fanfiction crisis is still in very early days, if editing this file continues to prove difficult you could just wait a little while and see if either ffnet removes this blockage or JimmXinu releases an updated version to work around it. I'm betting this wasn't a deliberate effort to block FFDL but rather just an oversight that'll get sorted out in the fullness of time.
