Auto wordpress core and plugin updates function not working

I have 3 checkboxes here that when checked are disabling XMLRPC, WP core auto updates and WP plugin auto updates. im not even sure if they are working based on what I wrote and have been trying to figure it out too long and am now confused lol. Just wondering if you can help me determine if this is properly activating the filters:

Here is a screenshot of the theme options: https://i.stack.imgur.com/rWIfo.png

<?php if(!defined('ABSPATH')){ exit(); }
/**
 * Hawp theme security tab
 *
 * @package hawptheme
 */

/**
 * Security checkbox options.
 */
function disable_wordpress_data_options(){

    // Assign settings to variable
    $hawp_disable_xmlrpc      = get_option('hawp_disable_xmlrpc');
    $hawp_auto_update_core    = get_option('hawp_auto_update_core');
    $hawp_auto_update_plugins = get_option('hawp_auto_update_plugins');

    // The box checked (red) equals 'disabled', unchecked (green) equals enabled
    if( $hawp_disable_xmlrpc     === 'disabled' ) { add_filter( 'xmlrpc_enabled', '__return_false' ); }
    if( $hawp_auto_update_core    != 'disabled' ) { add_filter( 'auto_update_core', '__return_true' ); }
    if( $hawp_auto_update_plugins != 'disabled' ) { add_filter( 'auto_update_plugin', '__return_true' ); }
}
add_action('admin_init', 'disable_wordpress_data_options', 999);
?>

<form action="options.php" name="MyForm" id="getProduct" method="post">
    <?php settings_fields('hawp_security'); ?>

    <div class="hawp-container dark-container">
        <h3><span class="dashicons dashicons-lock"></span> Core Options</h3>
