"Imposing a pattern which, so the author contends, the facts do not warrant."

This sentence has been taken from the following link:

http://thegrammarexchange.infopop.cc/eve/forums/a/tpc/f/340600179/m/8232959637?r=1762959637#1762959637

Can the sentence take the following form without changing its meaning?

"Imposing a pattern which do not warrant the facts."

Thanks to all.

@Nousher Ahmed,
No, the meaning is different.

You might try "Imposing a pattern which is not warranted by the facts".

@Nousher Ahmed,
"Imposing a pattern which do not warrant the facts."

Go the other way. "Imposing a pattern which the facts do not warrant..."
