How to redirect all but one request using .htaccess?

I have a website build with React that uses Wordpress solely as a CMS. Routes are handled on the frontend side with react-router but because of that, I cannot access my WordPress admin page since all the routes are redirected to index.html.

I would like to redirect all routes to index.html except this one, which links to my admin panel: www.mysite.com/wordpress/wp-login.php

This is my .htaccess file

Options -MultiViews
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteRule ^ index.html [QSA,L]

I tried this, but it didn't help:

...

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/wordpress
RewriteRule ^ index.html [QSA,L]

You can accomplish that with this code in your .htaccess (explanations in code):

# BEGIN WordPress
    <IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
    RewriteEngine On
    # this line allows direct login to www.mysite.com/wordpress/wp-login.php
    RewriteRule ^wordpress/wp-login\.php$ - [L,NC]
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
    # everything else goes to www.mysite.com/index.html
    RewriteRule . index.html [L,NC]
    </IfModule>
# END WordPress

Your wordpress folder should have this htaccess code.

# BEGIN WordPress
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /wordpress/
RewriteRule ^/wordpress/index\.php$ - [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /wordpress/index.php [L]
</IfModule>

# END WordPress
