Doesn't read .vimrc

Describe the bug
I am trying to set some custom mapping in my $HOME/.vimrc

nnoremap <A-j> :m .+1<CR>==
nnoremap <A-k> :m .-2<CR>==
inoremap <A-j> <Esc>:m .+1<CR>==gi
inoremap <A-k> <Esc>:m .-2<CR>==gi
vnoremap <A-j> :m '>+1<CR>gv=gv
vnoremap <A-k> :m '<-2<CR>gv=gv

My settings.json

{
  "workbench.colorTheme": "Atom One Dark",
  "workbench.iconTheme": "material-icon-theme",
  "terminal.integrated.sendKeybindingsToShell": true,
  "yaml.schemas": {
    "file:///Users/FRANCESCO.ZUPPICHINI/.vscode/extensions/atlassian.atlascode-3.0.9/resources/schemas/pipelines-schema.json": "bitbucket-pipelines.yml"
  },
  "explorer.confirmDragAndDrop": false,
  "explorer.confirmDelete": false,
  "terminal.integrated.enableMultiLinePasteWarning": false,
  "security.workspace.trust.untrustedFiles": "open",
  "[python]": {
    "editor.defaultFormatter": "ms-python.black-formatter"
  },
  "[typescript]": {
    "editor.defaultFormatter": "esbenp.prettier-vscode"
  },
  "editor.formatOnSave": true,
  "[typescriptreact]": {
    "editor.defaultFormatter": "esbenp.prettier-vscode"
  },
  "[json]": {
    "editor.defaultFormatter": "esbenp.prettier-vscode"
  },
  "[html]": {
    "editor.defaultFormatter": "esbenp.prettier-vscode"
  },
  "[javascript]": {
    "editor.defaultFormatter": "esbenp.prettier-vscode"
  },
  "editor.formatOnPaste": true,
  "editor.lineNumbers": "relative",
  "vim.vimrc.enable": true,
  "vim.vimrc.path": "$HOME/.vimrc"
}

Doing cat $HOME/.vimrc, shows the file

But using the map doesn't do anything

Thank you in advance

Start with the vim.vimrc.enable and vim.vimrc.path settings in settings.json, then inspect $HOME/.vimrc and the VSCodeVim remapping debugging guidance linked in the issue.
