have the same bug in my config. Basically I can't use 
tex-validate-buffer or tex-validate-region which I'd rank as "severe" 
from a user's viewpoint.

The code in tex-mode.el acknowledges that using occur-mode is not a good 
solution and argues for a major rewrite.

A quick hack that may help the original poster (and other users) is to 
insert the following line in your emacs init file:

    (add-hook 'occur-mode-hook (function (lambda () (read-only-mode -1))))
