See if this works for you. If it does, you can include it in your action.
app.selection = null;
var items1 = app.activeDocument.pathItems;
var items2 = [];
for (var i = 0; i < items1.length; i++) {
if (items1[i].pathPoints.length == 4 &&
items1[i].closed == true &&
items1[i].stroked == true) {
items2.push(items1[i]);
}
}
for (var i = 0; i < items2.length; i++) {
items2.sort(function(a, b) {
return b.visibleBounds[2] - a.visibleBounds[2];})
}
