It looks good to me. But this sentence looks a bit too complicated.

"It can be followed by one or more accessor operators to define the
JSON element on a lower nesting level by which to filter the result."

Could we phrase this as following?

"In order to filter the result by values lying on lower nesting level,
@ operator can be followed by one or more accessor operators."
