If you already know the "desired spatial location" then what are you trying to refine?

Modeller does not use the template orientation for loops (many loops correspond to insertions anyway). The starting conformation for a loop is random and is influenced only by the termini positions. See the loop modeling paper or https://salilab.org/modeller/10.1/manual/node499.html
If you want to manually set the starting conformation for the loop, override the build_ini_loop() method: https://salilab.org/modeller/10.1/manual/node96.html
