Because Twisted didn't exist when Zope was written.  Even today
Twisted is a questionable asset to Zope development.  While its
probably better at being a multi-server framework than
Medusa/asyncore, its not clear that the direction Zope should move is
towards a multi-server framework.  That said, I'm willing to bet that
will go that direction regardless.
