I think it matters if you consider touching the rim matters changes the status of the location on the court. I would also think if this was possible, the rules would change to make the rules very clear that a dunk would not be a 3. But it is not possible at this point without some technology that we have not seen yet.

If touching the rim meant you were at the location of the rim, then in every NBA stadium you would be out of bounds. The rim is attached to the stanchion which is only touching out of bounds.
