Plex is not putting your server machine to sleep.  
That is solely dependent on a setting in the power management controls of your operating system.

Plex server has only a setting to _prevent_ sleep while it’s running. (Windows only)  
Settings - Server - General - ‘Show Advanced’ - “Support Away Mode when preventing system sleep”
