In theory no UCI race is open to everyone to enter, i.e. you have to be a UCI license holder issued by an affiliated federation.
There are a significant number of races which award UCI points where there are entry criteria based on nationality or rankings, i.e. national championships, continental championships etc, up to and including the Worlds and Olympics.
Why would they get uci points when it isnt a uci race? It's not open to everyone to enter.
