Sorry, I don't think I understand what you are saying (and if I did, I
cannot reproduce it).  I visited a random zip archive on my system,
then pressed RET on one of the files, then killed the buffer which
visited that file -- and didn't see any changes in the time stamps
recorded in the zip archive.  Which is what I'd expect, since visiting
a file from an archive doesn't rewrite the archive, nor modifies it in
any other way.

What am I missing?
