Installing dracut-config-rescue only enables re-generation of the rescue kernel when the next kernel update happens, it does not trigger re-generation of the rescue kernel on its own. If you want to do that, the simplest way is probably to just `dnf reinstall` the kernel. Alternatively, invoking /usr/bin/kernel-install with the right parameters will run this scriptlet, and also re-generate the rescue kernel.
