1) She wasn't wearing glasses because she didn't find them.
2) She wasn't wearing glasses because she couldn't find them.
3) She wasn't wearing glasses because she wouldn't find them.
Are the three sentences above grammatical? In my humble opinion, they are. I can't see much difference between 1 & 2, and three, if it's right, I guess "wouldn't" conveys insistance (on trying to find the glasses).
