Answers:
It goes stale!.

Here is the official definition for it:

Although the precise mechanism of staling is still unknown, one important mechanism appears to be migration of moisture from the starch granules into the interstitial spaces, degelatinizing the starch!. This results in stale bread's leathery texture!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

Because you've evporated all the water/moisture out of the bread with heat!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

air changes the breads consistency!.!.!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
