I think I figured out why I am seeing this issue.

When I download the report, it was using a live connection. 
Then I change it to Direct Query connection( When I click on transform data, It asks me to add a local model and I choose the Direct Query)
Don't do this ^
just go to Option and Change Data Source
This will avoid creating a duplicate data model.
