From `man udevadm`, found with `apropos udev`:

...
   udevadm control command
       Modify the internal state of the running udev daemon.
...
       --reload-rules
           Signal udevd to reload the rules files. The udev daemon 
           detects changes automatically, this option is usually not 
           needed.  Reloading rules does not apply any changes to 
           already existing devices.
...

So just change the rule(s).
