As was already mentioned elsewhere in this thread, the terminal
environmental variables are not inherited by GUI applications,
unfortunately.

That being said, the current development version of Tw should
automatically append the path to the current typesetting tool to $PATH
on the Mac to act as a fallback for scenarios like yours (see also
https://github.com/TeXworks/texworks/issues/861 and
https://github.com/TeXworks/texworks/commit/f607e719625512e8940a97caf6e6dc3258763a0b).
If you want to test this behavior, the latest development binaries are
available at the bottom of
https://bintray.com/texworks/OSX-latest/TeXworks-for-Mac%3Alatest/view#files.

HTH,
