 Whose servers do RCS messages pass thru?

It is quite difficult to know in each case, there is no trace information as there is with email.
You can read here:

Basically, it depends on whether your provider supports it directly, or not. If not, then it is via Google servers. Look at the "Interconnection and hubs" section in the above link.
There is also a large table of providers ("Commercial deployments").
