This page has a link to their articles and bylaws:

The page was not so easy to find and the documents are scanned so not
easily searched electronically.

Nonetheless, these documents do explain how to become an FSF member and
what rights members have.

The first page of their Form 990 gives some statistics on the number of
members and volunteers:

9 voting members, 14 staff, 2000 volunteers
