Another way to see it (which also includes the 10 in the rule) is:
Diagonally (starting in top left corner): 10-13-16-19-22 (+3)
Diagonally (starting in top right corner): 10-8-6-4-2 (-2)

Also the top box is -0 if you consider the 10 as the merging of two cells with 10 in it.

I got the same answer as everyone else but used a different method. Thought I'd still share.
10 + 10 = 20
08 + 13 = 21
16 + 06 = 22
04 + 19 = 23
22 + ?? = 24
24 - 22 = 02
? = 2

You could also consider that the sum of the outer values in each column minus the inner equals $10$, so
$8+22 - (16+4) =10$
$13+? - (6+19) = 10 Rightarrow ? = 22. $

After reading the other answers I think I worked this out in a really convoluted way - but thought I'd share anyway:
Comparing to 10, the smaller number decrease is 2 thirds of the larger number increase
13 = increase of 3 -> 2 thirds of 3 = 2 -> 10 - 2 = 8
16 = increase of 6 -> 2 thirds of 6 = 4 -> 10 - 4 = 6
19 = increase of 9 -> 2 thirds of 9 = 6 -> 10 - 6 = 4
22 = increase of 12 -> 2 thirds of 12 = 8 -> 10 - 8 = 2
Which gives the answer of 2

After reading the other answers I think I worked this out in a really convoluted way - but thought I'd share anyway:
Comparing to 10, the smaller number decrease is 2 thirds of the larger number increase
13 = increase of 3 -> 2 thirds of 3 = 2 -> 10 - 2 = 8
16 = increase of 6 -> 2 thirds of 6 = 4 -> 10 - 4 = 6
19 = increase of 9 -> 2 thirds of 9 = 6 -> 10 - 6 = 4
22 = increase of 12 -> 2 thirds of 12 = 8 -> 10 - 8 = 2
Which gives the answer of 2
