Sex-drive is a product of evolution, certainly. Rape is byproduct of that evolutionary trait (among others; rape in modern humans is a complicated thing). But there are many compelling reasons why rape is not evolutionarily beneficial to humans, among them, that strong family bonds seem to be important to our mutual survival, and that rape is an end-run on an extremely important mechanism of natural selection: a woman's desire to mate with a male with "good" genes.
