The table column order has been fixed by removing empty array as parameter from addTable().
$tbl = $section->addTable(array());
to
$tbl = $section->addTable();
style name should passed to addTable
$table = $section->addTable([$tableStyle]);
Step to define table style
create array and define style for table
$tableStyle = array(
'borderColor' => '006699',
'borderSize' => 6,
'cellMargin' => 50
);
define style to phpword object
$phpWord->addTableStyle('myTable', $tableStyle);
Add style when create table from section
$table = $section->addTable('myTable');
