Setting margins with set-window-margins is a low-level operation.
Margins get re-set whenever the buffer displayed is changed.
IOW I think the behavior you describe with above recipe is not a bug.

But indeed, if you set the margin with S-mouse-1 or S-mouse-3 on the
header-line, then ruler-mode should arguably try to preserve this
setting like you request it.
