>>account_login. No rule on a child table will matter.
Well i had the same perception.... In order to double check this i created an On insert do nothing rule on the child table and did an insertion to the master table i.e (account_login) but this time the On insert do nothing rule did affect and no insert was done to the child table...
Note: I did not have any on insert do nothing rule on the master table.

That's because you dropped the rule that would have affected that
query. Remember that rules effectively work on the query strings
themselves, so to impact that update you'd have to have a rule on
account_login. No rule on a child table will matter.
