Having spent the last thirty minutes reading answers to this question from people way better at math than I am, I can confidently answer this question with:
Magic
Also particles aren’t real and neither is electromagnetism, anymore, apparently, so that’s fun.
In short, we don’t really have a good answer for this. The standard model is a very incomplete theory of quantum physics. There are MANY predictions that it either gets wrong or cannot explain.
Why do some particles interact with the Higgs Field while others do not?
