You have a rewrite rule in your htaccess that redirects all requests (that doesn't exist on the server) to your index.php file:

From your current htaccess:

RewriteCond %{SCRIPT_FILENAME} !-d  
RewriteCond %{SCRIPT_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteRule . index.php [L,QSA]

Since nginx doesn't use htaccess files, you need to add the same rule to your nginx-server config.

This nginx-rule should do the same thing as the htaccess-rewrite:

location / {
    try_files $uri $uri/ /index.php?$args;
}
