Badges don't do anything with regards to rights, and they won't affect whether you're made admin or not.

It's not the quantity of your edits that counts - it's the quality. I personally would much prefer someone who did 50 quality edits to grammar to someone who did 100 edits to page categories to become an admin.

Also, I would recommend that you go for Rollback before you go for admin. Some users will want to see evidence that you can deal with responsibility.

Lastly, making minor edits to articles just to get badges is Pointsgaming and can earn you a ban.
