I found in the homeserver logs this
I placed the Corporal UserId into the ratelimit_overwrite to 0, but still I get the "Too Many Requets"

Perhaps you're hitting the rate limit with another user?
matrix-corporal tries to impersonate other users by authenticating via matrix-synapse-shared-secret-auth. It's likely that these login requests are hitting rate limits.
It's probably a good idea to raise the global rate limits somewhat.
A better solution would probably be for us to change the way matrix-corporal works, so that it's an appservice and can impersonate users that way (instead of going through the regular flow and being subjected to rate limits).
