Comment:

 This is intended behaviour for display of content. You can stop this by
 removing wptexturize from the hooks it's attached to. See wp-includes
 /default-filters.php for the places it is used. Then you can pretty much
 do the same but replace add_filter with remove_filter and put it in a
 plugin or in your theme's functions.php.

 I cannot say if this is the original reason for being on a filter, but to
 have the original unchanged content in the database makes sense and only
 change it for display like this.
