So... what do you want to happen if $args are included?

I'll guess "check for /downtime.html, then try the app server". In which
case, the following might be close:

===
server {
set $u1 $uri/index.html;
set $u2 $uri;
if ($is_args) {
set $u1 "";
set $u2 "";
}

try_files /downtime.html $u1 $u2 @app;

location @app {
proxy_pass http://app_server;
}
}
===

You'll need some extra bits, for example to define app_server, but it
might give some inspiration.

Good luck with it,
