When Using the Import Cover from File action "Import Cover As" ( with Back Cover Selected)
The Image is denoted as
"Other" and not "Back Cover" in MP3 Tag
This can of course be changed in the by right clicking & setting the cover type manually with no problems but I'm not sure why they won't import as back covers off-rip
I would like to note I am using this action within an action group:
1. There are some variables that are set, won't bore you
2. Import %Front Cover%.JPG as Front Cover [Delete Existing Art]
3. Import %Front Cover%.PNG as Front Cover [Delete Existing Art]
4. Import %Back Cover%.JPG as Back Cover
5. Import %Back Cover%.PNG as Back Cover
6. Cover Adjustment [JPEG] 4000x4000
That last step is just to convert images to JPEG without shrinking them
Also I don't actually import 4 cover arts, Sometimes they are in JPG and rarely in PNG so I just account for the PNG files as well

I did not test it here with your rebuild action group but testing it with single quick-actions the covers are saved as back-cover, (flac and mp3)

I tried it again with a new set of files and it worked no problem so maybe it was just that batch of files
