When you submit the exact same URL as one that's been submitted before, the previous article gets a point, but a duplicate entry isn't created.
To get the article to show up again, you'd have to do something with the URL to fool HN into thinking it's a distinct submission. I wouldn't recommend doing this except under rare circumstances - perhaps years have passed and the old article has become suddenly quite relevant due to current events.
