I see two main differences there:

Your apache RewriteRule has [L] on the end. Your nginx rewrite does
not. Possibly you want "break" -- http://nginx.org/r/rewrite

Your apache RewriteRule is protected by RewriteCond. Your nginx rewrite
is not. Possibly something involving try_files or error_page and a named
location for fallback could achieve the same effect.
