Because of stray capacitance. At very high frequencies, the inter-electrode capacitance has a low enough impedance that the diode no longer cuts off when reverse-biased, there is still significant conduction via capacitive coupling. High-frequency diodes are constructed so as to minimize this capacitance.

Why dont we get the transister action by connecting two diodes back to back?

Because two diodes is not a transistor. There is an interaction between the junctions in the transistor, because of their proximity, that you don't get in the two diodes. The only use of modeling a transistor as two diodes back to back is to test a transistor with a multimeter as a quick go-nogo test for basic operability.
