Ok, as a quick check, you could try a regex like the following for Apache:

RewriteRule ^/([0-9]+)\.html$ https://www.example.com?p=$1 [L,R=301]

And something like this for Nginx:

rewrite ^/([0-9]+)\.html$ https://www.example.com?p=$1 permanent;

This should match any page composed of digits 0-9 and .html.

The rule you posted wouldn't match on the .html part, which might be why it wasn't working.

Not too clear what you're trying to do, however, unless you have a rewrite rule that'd be removing / from $uri first, your rule of rewrite ^([0-9]+)+[^.html] https://www.example.com/$1 redirect; would never match, because it is impossible for $uri to not start with /, hence, ^([0-9]+) would never catch anything. (Additionally, [^.html] looks suspect as well — I have a feeling that it wouldn't do what you expect it might.)

The correct way may be:

rewrite ^/([0-9]+)\.html$ /?p=$1 redirect;

However, as per nginx redirect loop, remove index.php from url and related, the following "loop" might be what you actually want:

if ($request_uri ~ ^/?p=([0-9]+)) {
    return 302 /$1.html
}
rewrite ^/([0-9]+)\.html$ /?p=$1;

The above code would ensure that the /?p= style is only used internally within nginx and the backend, whereas externally, everything always gets redirected to, and served from, the .html-style pages.
