I wasn't sure but I had thought I read somewhere recently that it would keep for a week...I just can't remember where I read it! I did find this online though:

Q: How long can rice be stored?
A: Milled rice (white, parboiled or pre-cooked) will keep almost indefinitely on the pantry shelf. Once opened, rice should be stored in a tightly-closed container that keeps out dust, moisture and other contaminants. Brown rice, because of the oil in the bran layer, has a limited shelf life of approximately 6 months. Refrigerator storage is recommended for longer shelf life. Cooked rice, when not eaten immediately, should be cooled quickly. To store cooked rice, place in a shallow container, cover, and place in refrigerator. Cooked rice may be stored in the refrigerator for up to 7 days.
