Originally interviewed for a Manager position but joined as a SC due to no consulting experience. After two years of highest rated performances, they still wouldn’t promote me because I don’t meet their certification requirement within the risk advisory practice (I don’t have CPA and not planning on getting one).. Should I consider moving to a different firm?

Also, like you really don’t need a CPA in risk

Risk advisory at deloitte doesn't require CPA for manager. There's a list of eligible certs like CIA, CFE, CISA, CISM, etc.

You clearly don’t pay attention to promotion requirements. You don’t need a CPA in Advisory, but you one of the certifications listed on DNet to be promoted. This is something your coach should have explained, but something you should have researched in anticipation of promotion as well.

If you have to have a cert to get promoted you just have to go do it or leave. Sounds like there are easier options, so go crush one and then get your promotion
