Yes, but new air will be much more effective at absorbing water than the tiny bit of water that the rice will absorb from the air in a closed bag. Thus the results V_Rocks actually saw.
The "considerably" is the part that is wrong about what you're saying. Air movement (even fresh air without movement) will dry a phone much faster than some rice in a closed environment.
If you really want to see the difference, do it again with two bottle caps, but place them far apart and put a fan over one of them.
