Copy + Renaming images leaves out any metadata

I tried to copy images to another folder and sort them into source structure + renaming them with some camera info. It turns out that they can be copied and renamed but any metadata is left out.
I checked the previews and everything index-wise worked out. Hazel can see the metadata but not until a tested a simpler rule of just renaming the already copied file within that folder, the metadata was applied. I first thought that I had copied files to the folder and then renamed the original files, but that was not the case either.
The debug log does not give any indication what I can tell. What do you need from me and how do I attach log or Sc?
