Note, upstream has moved to new GitHub repositories:
Homepage URL: https://jdecked.github.io/twemoji/

https://github.com/jdecked/twemoji
https://github.com/jdecked/twemoji-parser

Upstream now include the generator for that file

https://github.com/twitter/twemoji-parser/issues/14#issuecomment-795943097
https://github.com/twitter/twemoji-parser/pull/15

Indeed, that file now documents itself as being generated by the "source/emoji/scripts/generate.sh" script
https://github.com/jdecked/twemoji-parser/blob/47d46405ed89c15948334913dec2693ad389b627/src/lib/regex.js#L4
