Here's the explanation about apache 2.4 flags for RewriteRules [1].
In a few words:
- NC means match in a case-insensitive manner;
- L means stop processing the rule set.

Then please take a look on NGINX documentation site [2].
The following link to the rewrite directive contains very good,
example, [3].  It's very closer to what you want to implement.

Also, please take a look on the location directive [4], it
helps understand how to route a request to a location.
