Pennies are made of copper and don't rust unless they are the zinc pennies issued in 1942 and 1943. However, zinc will not rust either. The so-called steel pennies minted during World War II were made of steel and coated with zinc. If the penny becomes damaged or if the zinc coating is compromised, the underlying steel will rust if exposed to the proper elements. Pennies do corrode though.
