bashdeep covered this question pretty well above. Toward/towards is a non-issue. One other thing worth noting is that E switches to an adverbial modifier ("allowing . . . "), thereby creating the impression that it is the court's work, rather than the doctrine, that allows patent law to accommodate reason.

My understanding of this question and the logic I followed:
1) toward and towards are both correct. The usage differs in practical applications in UK and US English but both are accepted. Don't eliminate ans choices based on this.
2) Understand the meaning of sentence first. The doctrine of equivalents allowed the patent law to accommodate reason outside its jurisdiction. Supreme court made a move towards establishing propriety of this doctrine. The 'which' is correctly modifying 'equivalents' in all options except in E where 'allowing' is modifying 'the propriety of doctine...'. Therefore, eliminate E.
3) Now focus on parallelism. Note that 'accommodate' is not expected to be parallel with 'explain' because of the comma before 'and'. Making it parallel changes the meaning of the sentence. It is expected that 'establishing' and 'explaining' should be parallel. So options B, C and D are out. Option A is left.
