请教一个Status Adjustment Eligibility问题

In the 485 filing instructions, there are the following statements:

you are not eligible for adjustment of status if any of the following apply to you:

D. Your authorzied stay expired before you filed this application;

E. You were employed in the United States without USCIS authorization prior to

filiing this application;

F. You failed to maintain your nonimmigration status, unless your failure to

maintain status was through no fault of your own or for technical reasons;

unless you are applying because you are:

1. An immediate relative of a US citizen (parent, spouse, ...)

These three parts are confusing to me. My questions is: If one violates D and E, and is a spouse of a US citizen, can s/he apply for the status of adjustment? Is part D or E is more serious than "you failed to maintain your nonimmigration status"? What exactly "You failed to maintain your nonimmigration status" means?

Thanks
