Can it be fixed automatically?
Not fixed automatically. This failure needs the authoring tool or manual remediation; the automatic fix does not change it.
How to fix it by hand
Links, comments and form fields must be in the tag tree (Link, Annot, Form tags). Export as tagged PDF from the authoring tool, or let a PDF editor tag the annotations, then check the result.
