Bastien, I have not tried full configuration, but after a quick check I 
believe that it is a reasonable suggestion. It prevents 301 redirection 
from valid URLs like
https://orgmode.org/manual/Links-in-HTML-export.html
to
https://orgmode.org/manual/HTML-Export.html

In addition I would consider

    location /manual/ {
    }

around the rewrite directives to prevent unintentional false positives 
in e.g. worg.

P.S. Workarounds:
M-: (info "(org) Links in HTML Export")
https://orgmode.org/org.html#HTML-Export
