org-eww-copy-for-org-mode works reasonably only on a buffer that has
been prepared by the shr library.  The typical example for such buffer
is the output of eww.

If plain html is given and you want to use org-eww-copy-for-org-mode you
could prepare a suitable buffer along the lines of shr-render-buffer, I
think.
