afraid Google Pagespeed Insights changes a couple of times per year, so scores can go down even if you changed nothing. I would advise to re-install Autoptimize with “inline & defer” on and then review not the score (which is just a number to get you interested), but the “lab data”, the “opportunities” and the “recommendations”. Feel free to follow up here if you have questions about those.

I get it what you are saying. I can ignore that. But after switching on “inline & defer” my site was having kind of a glitch. Sometimes the css doesn’t load properly and my site looks weird. Even after I switch off this feature, the critical css is still active. At the end I had to restore the site from an old backup.
I just want to know is there anyway we can revert back after implementing critical css.

well, disabling “inline & defer CSS” (and if need be purging page cache(s)) should be enough really.

I tried these methods. I even uninstalled Autoptimize and deleted autoptimize cache folder and files. No luck. Anyways, restoring an old backup fixed it. Thank you for the continuous support. Have a great day!
Well, if problems continue with AO disabled or removed, then either it is a page cache issue or something else (another plugin?) causing the problem.
