SubmitToSharePointList command does perform updates from the form to the list. You need to specify a node for the id in your command, and then you can change items in your form and submit again to update. Here's a video demo you might find helpful...

Okay I have your idea working (thanks again), of course here is the next inevitable question: Is it possible to update the status of a list item using qrules? If this isn’t possible with qrules would a workaround be to somehow start a SharePoint workflow to delete items marked as "inactive"?

Since qRules and custom code can't co-exist in the same form, I'm afraid there isn't an option to delete from your form and have the changes reflected in your list. One work around might be to add a field for 'active' to your items, and mark them active / inactive. Then, in your ShP list, you could set your views to not display inactive items....

Ahh, thats would explain why I couldnt find anything here on how to do that. So i guess, for now, its a code only option then?

Currently, we only allow adding and updating from InfoPath to SharePoint using qRules. Delete functionality should be added in a future release.
