Yes, your Android shows device model as z010d but the TWRP detects the device as z010 model.
You can delete the assert code in the ROM and install. That’s one way. Else you update the following TWRP which is for z010D: https://androidfilehost.com/?fid=745425885120701766

And see if you are able to install the ROM !!
