The <zip>, <tar> and <jar> task all try to determine whether they need
to do anything based on the timestamps of the archive to create and
the timestamps of the files to add.

If your archive already exists, you won't be able to add a file (by
means of Ant) that is older than the archive. This is intended
behavior because everything else would mean you'd have to look into
the archive to retrieve the timestamps of the files within - which is
rather costly.
