1) Don't forget your [L]ast flag.
[QSA,R=301,L]
2) Are your RewriteRules in a <Location>? If so, then the location
dir is already stripped before the RewriteRule gets called.
3) I am not sure QSA is doing what you want here (not tried it). Try these:
RewriteRule ^/directoryone/directorytwo/(.*)$ "/$1?" [QSA,R=301,L]
RewriteRule ^/directoryone/directorytwo/(.*)$ "/$1?%{QUERY_STRING}" [R=301,L]
4) Turn on debugging with RewriteLogLevel 2 and RewriteLog /some/log/file.
