Thor has already been long cognizant of the fact that if they do retain their memories when they return and Loki -- or anyone else -- is able to change things, their timelines would simply split off. His Loki was dead and would remain dead, no matter what this Loki chose to do or didn't.
If there was anyone here Thor was sure was aware of this fact, it would have been Loki -- and Loki seemed to have no reservation in leveraging that fact as amunition against him. Loki was right, on some accounts: ultimately, all he really wanted was to believe that there was some slim possiblity that in some other reality, his brother might live. Thor's growing ire came from the facts Loki verbally laid out before him: Loki knew what he needed, but was determined to deny him even that small measure of hope.
Thor lets out a scoffing laugh to mask the pain of it.
"Believe whatever you want to believe," he says. "Anything I tell you isn't going to change your mind." Loki was just as determined to believe he was right as he thought Thor was. "The book is there, regardless of if you want it or not. I don't care if you do anything with it or don't." A lie. "Feel free to see yourself out."
