The body diode
of the 'backwards' (top) MOSFET blocks reverse current flow.
You still haven't explained the point of the 'forward' MOSFET.

Generally the zener is used to prevent transient conditions from exceeding the "Absolute Maximum" spec for Vgs:
VGS Gate-to-Source Voltage ± 20 V
Is the gate to source voltage of the 'backwards' MOSFET adequately clamped?
