Stir together vegan eggnog/vinegar mixture, sugar, oil, extracts, and rum in a large mixing bowl.
Sift in flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, baking powder, salt, and nutmeg. Whisk together until just combined. Fill cupcake liners halfway with batter. Bake for 18 minutes, or until the tops are firm. Transfer to a wire rack to cool.
