AOA!
First of all, there is no cutting or deduction of marks in CIE as far as I know. However, if there are too many spelling mistakes, it does give a bit of a bad impression, but I do not think it will affect your marks too much as long as the message gets across to the examiner.

Nope. As long as you don't misspell 'Congress' as 'Colgate' or 'Caterpillar' or something.. as long as the meaning is understandable, you won't lose marks.
What matters are the points, and the contents of your answer.
That is what determines your marks.
