Look at RFC 4180 which is the "official" definition of CSV format. Bank of America is producing CSV files that are consistent with the RFC, and can also be read directly by Microsoft Excel. Apple's Numbers, LibreOffice and Google Sheets all handle this CSV file without problems, so I believe it is a Gnucash bug, not a Bank of America bug.

I would like a bugzilla account. I have encountered a bug with CSV
files
from Bank of America sometimes having embedded backslashes that do
not
import properly. I work around the problem by editing the CSV file
before importing, but did investigate and found RFC 4180 does not
allow
use of backslash as a quote character. I want to submit a formal bug
and
may be able to construct a patch to fix the bug.
