Section 3.2. says:

      <Diameter-EAP-Answer> ::= < Diameter Header: 268, PXY >
                                < Session-Id >
                                { Auth-Application-Id }
                                { Auth-Request-Type }
                                { Result-Code }
                                { Origin-Host }
                                { Origin-Realm }
                                [ User-Name ]
                                [ EAP-Payload ]
                                [ EAP-Reissued-Payload ]
                                [ EAP-Master-Session-Key ]
                                [ EAP-Key-Name ]
                                [ Multi-Round-Time-Out ]
                                [ Accounting-EAP-Auth-Method ]
                                [ Service-Type ]

It should say:

      <Diameter-EAP-Answer> ::= < Diameter Header: 268, PXY >
                                < Session-Id >
                                { Auth-Application-Id }
                                { Auth-Request-Type }
                                { Result-Code }
                                { Origin-Host }
                                { Origin-Realm }
                                [ User-Name ]
                                [ EAP-Payload ]
                                [ EAP-Reissued-Payload ]
                                [ EAP-Master-Session-Key ]
                                [ EAP-Key-Name ]
                                [ Multi-Round-Time-Out ]
                              * [ Accounting-EAP-Auth-Method ]
                                [ Service-Type ]

Notes:

When one or more EAP methods used for authenticating the user, for each used EAP method an Accounting-EAP-Auth-Method AVP is added in the Diameter-EAP-Answer with a successful result code. In the message format of Diameter-EAP-Answer, one or more Accounting-EAP-Auth-Method AVPs can be included.
