The problem is that \section{…} is already matched by the default grammar. So you would need to add your rule above the existing rule, to give it higher priority.

That said, the default marks the section line as ‘meta.function.section.latex’ so you can apply your font change to this scope, and it should work (no need to edit the grammar).

And sorry about the late reply…
