That's because calibre doesn't actually alter the epub's cover.jpg unless you set up a new cover during an epub-to-epub conversion. An easier way, though, is to (if you don't have 7Zip or some other real archive manager) just rename the .epub to a .zip file (since that's all it is, really), dragn and drop your own cover.jpg (suitably renamed if it's a different filename inside the epub) into the archive to replace what's there, then rename the file back to .epub.
