Yes, soy and soya are the same thing. I think the reason why there are two spellings is because of the pronunciation in Asian languages. In Japanese, we don't say anything very similar to 'soy' or 'soya' when referring to 'soysauce' or 'soybeans', but if we were to write 'soy' in English, it would end up as 'soya'. Maybe in Chinese it's more like soya? Anyways, they're the same thing.
I'm not vegan (so I usually use regular 1% milk), so I wouldn't know about the tastes of soy and rice milk, but a major difference would be the ingredients used in rice and soy milk (rice =/= soy).
Soy milk oftentimes tastes very similar to tofu (unless maybe if there are extra ingredients such as cocoa or honey for flavouring). They are made from the same beans (soy). You can learn more about how soy milk is made and such here.
I would think that rice milk would have a starchier taste, but I've never actually seen it.
Rice milk is usually sweetened with cane sugar (according to wikipedia), which is not vegan.
Another vegan substitute for milk is Almond milk.
