To conclude, I don't know how to put together a script to search and replace with regex and I'm not sure if it's possible to get the space after one- or two-letter words at the end of every line.
To begin with, Word does not work with lines - it works with paragraphs, etc. That said, for a workaround see:

Moreover, it's far from apparent what you want to do with those spaces once you've found them.
