Hello,
Thank you for contacting Rank Math Support today and bringing your concern to our attention. I’m sorry for any inconvenience this issue may have caused you.
Migrating from Yoast SEO plugins is easier with Rank Math, and we ensure that your data gets migrated carefully so that you don’t lose anything in this process and don’t have to set up all meta tags for your posts once again from scratch.
You can recheck that you have followed all steps properly for the migration by the following article:

Switching to Rank Math should not affect your rankings as long as you have properly configured it. Could you please confirm you have migrated all the settings to Rank Math including the redirections and etc.?
Please note that ranking on Google depends on so much more than just your on-page optimization. Here are some of the factors Google considers when ranking you:
1. Your website’s authority
2. Your content’s quality and how better it is than the other article currently ranking
3. How competitive the keyword is
4. How many backlinks you have and if they are better than what the other guys ranking for that keyword have
5. Your website’s crawlability
6. Frequency of new content and content updates
7. So much more that there is a dedicated blog post on it by Brian Dean
