Put the following formula in a measure and then add it in the conditional formatting (using field value).

 

Background Color 1 =
VAR _variance_per_country =
    CALCULATE ( [Variance %], ALLEXCEPT ( 'order', 'order'[Customer Id] ) )
RETURN
    SWITCH (
        TRUE (),
        _variance_per_country < 0.2, "#D64550",
        _variance_per_country < 0.5, "#E8D166",
        _variance_per_country <= 10, "#79FF00",
        "#00000"
    )
