-e ADMIN_TOKEN=$(openssl rand -base64 48)

It seems that you are generating a random token each time you recreate the container. If you want to login you can check what value is set for the environment variable.

docker exec vaultwarden printenv ADMIN_TOKEN

Cf. https://github.com/dani-garcia/vaultwarden/wiki/Enabling-admin-page for more information.

btw: WEBSOCKET_ENABLED and port 3012 are not used anymore (since version v1.31.0!) so you are probably using an outdated tutorial.
