The system doesn't recognize capitalization as different, so if an uncapitalized tag exists, users can't make a separate capitalized one. When you enter the properly capitalized version, the system slaps the pre-existing one on your fic. Wranglers can change the capitalization, which makes it change on everyone's fic. (And someone probably will do that eventually. We just probably haven't noticed yet, especially if it's not a major character or pairing.)
I don't know what's going on with misspellings. I assume there's some issue changing tags on drafts or something. You should be able to edit tags on an already posted story. At that point, you'd just take the misspelled one off and that would be the last you'd see of it. From the wrangler side, it will show up in the list of new tags, but if it isn't used on any drafts, works, or bookmarks and if it isn't connected (by wranglers) to any other tags, it will get automatically removed some time in the next day.
So, yes, it sets in instantly in a sense, but it's also not a big deal if you have tags with typos. Just correct what's on your actual fic and the messed up versions will go away.
