On piston motors the oil runs all over the valvetrain, cams, crank, etc...
There are a lot more moving parts on piston motors so its supposed to help a little when you have an additive that cleans these parts.
But on the rotary, I dont know if it will help. There are no valves or cams for the "oil treatment" to do its job. The only thing that does a good job "restoring" the rotary is the ATF treatment in the motor.
