The central problem is however, that dig gives me the correct MX record and 
nslookup doesn't. MX record exists, just exim is not able to find it.

I even tried this email id. It gives these prompts

dnslookup router called for [email protected]
      domain = tutanota.com
tutanota.com in "*"? yes (matched "*")
DNS lookup of tutanota.com (MX) gave TRY_AGAIN

How does exim find DNS? Which command does it particularly use?

Exim uses a library routine called res_search().
It does not use a command (meaning en executable program).

The library accesses the system facilities for getting DNS results.
How those work are not under Exim's control, beyond the API of
the library.
