There is a very lengthy document over on W3.org, recently posted or updated:

EPUB Fixed Layout Accessibility

I just wish they would include an example ePub illustrating the 'best practices'.

I just tried opening the ePub generated from print replica by KFX Input with Thorium Reader, it is searchable and text-to-speech works (I had tried Apple Books before). So that seems to be 'as expected', and maybe as much as is possible (i.e. 'selectability' isn't supported).
