I understand that a Bag of Holding can be ruptured from the inside, but is there an escape method from a P-Hole?
Hole is defined as:
A portable hole is a circle of cloth spun from the webs of a phase spider interwoven with strands of ether and beams of starlight, resulting in a portable extradimensional space. When opened fully, a portable hole is 6 feet in diameter, but it can be folded up to be as small as a pocket handkerchief. When spread upon any surface, it causes an extradimensional space 10 feet deep to come into being. This hole can be picked up from inside or out by simply taking hold of the edges of the cloth and folding it up. Either way, the entrance disappears, but anything inside the hole remains, traveling with the item.
The only air in the hole is that which enters when the hole is opened. It contains enough air to supply one Medium creature or two Small creatures for 10 minutes. The cloth does not accumulate weight even if its hole is filled. Each portable hole opens on its own particular nondimensional space. If a bag of holding is placed within a portable hole, a rift to the Astral Plane is torn in that place. Both the bag and the cloth are sucked into the void and forever lost. If a portable hole is placed within a bag of holding, it opens a gate to the Astral Plane. The hole, the bag, and any creatures within a 10-foot radius are drawn there, the portable hole and bag of holding being destroyed in the process.

It says "This hole can be picked up from inside", so the inside has some level of consistency and probably can be cut. That will destroy the Portable hole. What happens to the content when the portable hole is destroyed is not defined. My gaming group uses the old rules (1ed AD&D) and the content is ejected on the Astral plane. A creature can then try to find a way back home.
A safer way is to use Plane shift of similar magic. You go to another plane (even to one where the outside of the Portable hole is) and have escaped.
I understand the hole (rim and back) to be made of spun web etc. but figured the interior to be, well, like a hole dug into whatever material it was laid on.
Lay it on a concrete wall concrete hole lining, lay it on a marble floor, marble hole lining.
Would this be under 'rule of cool' as it is not stated?

This is how I have always ran it...
Portable hole on dirt = a hole with dirt walls... rock = rock... etc.
