you can't lose marks for 'bad handwriting' per se, but generally if the marker can't read something they'll just skip over it. that may end up costing you marks. they tend to be pretty lenient since it is your final exams but they're not going to sit there for hours poring over it and trying to decipher each word.

just try and make it as legible as possible, what I've been trying to do with HSC is to go over paragraphs at the very end w/ like a minute to go, and fix up any words that are completely unreadable

You can check out the section on Embedding an Image within this thread to learn how to do that.

When I did VCE, my teachers all said try your best to make it legible, but a) examiners have a lot of experience reading handwriting so are pretty good at reading all sorts of messiness and b) if they genuinely can't read it, they have to pass the exam on to another examiner (and will do this until it gets to someone who can read the writing!). Just do your best :)
