I keep getting kicked as admin. SA is saying cheat detected. There was a time it thought i was cheating while using vanish. unbanned already (server) but this still happens and have to unload SA to join server.

above is my config related to auto kick. need help thanks!
do you have auth level 2 and oxide admin group?

this shows up on my logs before being kicked:

*.*.*.*:53964/76561############/saintmichel13 has auth level 2

o.show group admin

Group 'admin' players: 76561############ (saintmichel13)

 

for sharing these are the related plugins being used:

vanish for quietly moving around

admin status for allowing me to enable disable admin powers

One of your plugins is removing your admin status, therefore RUST is kicking you for cheat detected. You will have to sort out the initial issue first. 
i had same issue without Server Armour , When we had problems with website (ember) (Network issue on hosting) , it was removing auth 2 and ban from EAC to admin :) , after same situation when we didn't put admins in Whitelist in Rust Admin ( Eac )
is there a whitelist in SA that I can create a protected user list?

just to share, the reason i installed SA was to only see if it can help try to detect cheaters but no action yet (i disabled all kicking / banning). I didnt realize it has some "default" ones

what are the conditions to be kicked? I already removed the AdminStatusManager as well as returned back my owner status and joined back to admin group for oxide but I still get kicked 
Your assumptions were right, there aren't default ones. Server armour doesn't detect cheats, this is the behavior of something else.

Something else told server armour that the user was banned. 

You can remove the bans from the website https://io.serverarmour.com
hi - thank you for this i checked server armour and it does show that i got banned on my profile (https://io.serverarmour.com/profile/76561############) but on the server it doesnt exist anymore.

is it a correct assumption that the permission below is a protected list? maybe i'll try this 
serverarmour.whitelist.hardware.ownsbloody

i had to unload serverarmour for now as i can't get inside my server I always get kicked :(
