It depends entirely on your employer how long they will run your US payroll when you work from outside the US.
Why would you expect to be in a US based work status when living and working from another country?
If you're Australian for instance, why would you still be considered to be on H1B if you work from Australia?
Sure you can go on vacation etc and get paid, but that's again determined by your employer. They are not obligated to pay you US salary once you are out of the country. Doesn't mean they wouldn't or shouldn't.
And, vacation of few weeks is different from continuing to work from another country for a few months. Every employer is different, so reach out to your immigration team on how this would work for you.
