If I recall, bounces are indeed re-injected automatically by Exim
as a local message. You'll need to modify your ACL to:

acl_check_not_smtp:
  deny ! senders = :
       ratelimit = 2000 / 1h / strict / $sender_ident
       message   = You can only send $sender_rate_limit per $sender_rate_period
       log_message = "RATE: $sender_rate/$sender_rate_period (max
                     $sender_rate_limit) $sender_ident"
