Rewrite rules are not added to htaccess by default: they are recorded in the options table, under the option name rewrite_rules. That option is checked every time WP runs parse_request.
If your rewrites aren’t working as expected I’d look elsewhere for the cause (incorrect regex, rules in wrong order, rules being added too late etc).
