This is because the bot uses chromedriver.. and google chrome being a crap browser lets websites know you're running the webdriver(you're using automation). Chrome literally allows the website to check for that flag and block logins and this week Duolingo started doing just that(If it detects webdriver, it will simply say wrong password, no matter what).

To make the bot work again, you must use any browser, that does not tell websites, what's none of their business(such as which extensions you run). One such browsers is firefox.

Selenium works just fine on firefox, you install extension and put the geckodriver.exe in the folder... but the script needs to be adjusted to work with geckodriver.exe. I have tried simply renaming it to chromedriver.exe, but still wont work.. it's not that easy.
