The cover says 1992-2020 XYZ all rights reserved. Does it meet the 25-year rule?

I have purchased this score. It is not online. You can obtain the information I have entering Marie Bigot Calvert Johnson into worldcat.org.

Worldcat reports an urtext edition published by Vivace Press in 1992. The 2020 date is not mentioned. I guess that 2020 is the date when that specific batch of copies was printed. If it's a mere reprint, the 2020 date should be irrelevant from a copyright viewpoint.

OK I see what you mean't would have been helpful if you detailed the title of the work to us to avoid confusion. File I think looks Ok to pass Urtext edition rule.

I would have to see the edition, but there is a strong possibility that it is just a 2020 reprint of a 1992 edition. If so, then it's OK to add.
