because he plays a character - it's a guy that wants to stay a guy in real life (a gay guy though)
but the whole "Conchita Wurst" thing is him playing an invented character with the goal of showing that it doesnt matter if someone is male or female or straight or gay
when you say in german "es ist wurst" it means "it doesnt matter" - that's why he picked that name
and yes, amusingly enough he got quite a lot of votes from the russian audience, just not from their jury. still enough for 5 points from them
