what happens when it's not declined?

it's accepted... and enforced.
(and the down <play> is replayed from the new line of scrimmage)

biggest reason to decline a penalty is when you
want the down to count thereby making it fourth
down so the offense will have to punt.

there are other reasons, but usually a penalty
will be declined when the outcome of the down
is more advatageous to the team who was wronged
than the penalty would be.
