Yes there's no way Rust is the killer. Him being suspected by the current investigators is just a narrative point to show there are still people working against him. There is no twist here.
i agree that rust is not the killer. i'm kind of leaning towards the idea that rust is the one descending into madness after discovering the yellow king is still out there. similar to the way anyone who reads the second act of the play goes mad in the book.
