I like A the most because all the verb tenses are in agreement. not to ... but to matches in parallel construction so it's mostly likely A.
However, it is also true that placing adverbs between to and its infinitive verb is not preferred. This is called splitting infinitives and isn't the preferred placement. The stimulus might not be testing this knowledge point in this particular question though

I could easily eliminate BDE because of the parallelism issues in not...but using once outside twice inside rule
But I'm confused between A and C
No solid difference between the 2 but A seemed better because it mirrors the non-underlined portion of the sentence
