I think there is some misunderstanding here.
#+RESULTS is not a drawer. A drawer would be

:results:
...
:end:

As for code evaluation results, it can be anything with #+results
keyword. Like

#+results:
: fixed width
: text

or

#+results:
#+begin_example
...
#+end_example

or

#+results:
Simple paragraph of text.

`org-activate-code' only affects fixed-width text

: like
: this
:
: one

It has no relation to code results, except that fixed width is often
(but not always) used as the default markup for results of evaluation.

If what you are looking for is different formatting for code markup and
fixed-width markup, `org-fixed-width' would be a better face name.

If you are looking for formatting of results of evaluation, it would
need to be a completely new, non-trivial, font-lock-keyword.
