The magnetic field rotates inside a motor because the wiring (coils of wires) for each phase are shifted 120° in space. Since such motors work on three-phase AC voltage, the vector sum of magnetic field at every moment of time is slightly turned compared to every previous position of the resultant magnetic field.
