To doing? Why would it be present continuous? It's not an action occurring this moment or some frame of time, it's something he does.

If you break it up, wouldn't it be 'something he is will not to do' That's like 3 different verbs in a row,

No, wont and won't are different beasts entirely.

You are accustomed to doing it your way.
I've been doing it my way my whole life.
He's been doing that for two years.
He's used to doing that.
If you put "Something he's accustomed to doing." Into a grammar checker there are no errors.
Perhaps they are both correct.
He's been doing stupid things up until last year. <- Not present continuous.

"Something he's accustomed to doing" is isn't present tense.
"Something he's wont to doing" is (standard usage), and it's incorrect.
Are you really such a nigger that you cannot look up the usage of the word wont?
