It is not clear to me what exactly your question is.
The RVP of a liquid is simply the outcome of a standardised test. Is is not exactly the True Vapor Pressure, but there are graphs to convert one into the other.

This is a silly discussion, mainly due to the way wikipedia states things.
The vapor pressure of a liquid is the equilibrium pressure of a vapor above that liquid.
The difference betwen TVP and RVP is only that RVP is measured in a closed container whereby a small part of the original liquid vaporizes. As a consequence the remainling liquid is slightly heavier than the original liquid, so the measured RVP is really the TVP of that slightly heavier liquid, not the TVP of the original liquid composition. Therefor the RVP is not quite the same value as the TVP.
