You selected Accounts WITH or WITHOUT Contacts, therefore, the report is going to ignore your filter criteria and will pull records that "apparently" don't match. You can create this type of reports using cross filters
We use Person Accounts (PA) extensively and I have their fields in multiple Custom Report Types (CRT). You just need to add them via lookup.
When you click Add fields related via lookup, Person Account and Person Contact are both options let you select the PA fields, such as email and mailing address (see attached screenshot.)
