You should see 'something' related to rsync in your logs unless you
massively messed up your RSYNC section or its location in weewx.conf
For example - I took a clean system and enabled RSYNC then added the
log_failure and log_success lines to make it explicitly log
failure/success..
[StdReport]
...many lines omitted for brevity...
[[RSYNC]]
skin = Rsync
enable = true
server = replace_me ### <=== it'll fail on hostname resolution
user = replace_me
path = replace_me
log_failure = true
log_success = true
It logs the expected failures showing weewx at least ran the uploader.

Another example from one of my weewx instances that rsyncs a skin that has
literally one file in it:
