In my custom actions I need to know if a feature was hidden, in order to skip the uninstall/remove actions. Is this possible?

I'm not sure about being visible or not but if your goal was to know if the install state of a feature changed, you can use conditions on your Custom Actions to run or prevent them from running.

My problem is that the Custom Action is always executing even when the condition is not true. Just confirming, I tested with this conditions:
INSTALLLEVEL = 0
INSTALLLEVEL = 30578
INSTALLLEVEL = 30579
INSTALLLEVEL = 30580
Tried running the installer with that different values and it looks like the InstallShield is ignoring the condition and doing whatever he wants.

The INSTALLLEVEL property is not what you want. Use this:
&NameOfYourFeature = 2
This is true if the feature is being uninstalled.
