With only one Rinnegan eye, Sasuke doesn't have all the abilities that characters like Pain and Madara have. However, Sasuke's ability to teleport, control gravity, and even absorb chakra has saved the world many times. The Boruto series had to significantly reduce the effectiveness of the legendary shinobi, otherwise many of its problems would have been solved too quickly. However, besides the convenience of the plot, Sasuke has many reasons for not using the Rinnegan ability.
After Naruto forced Sasuke to admit defeat in Naruto Shippuden's best battle, the young Sasuke clan pledged to help Konoha, something the Rinnegan eyes had never done before. The The past actions of Rinnegan users such as Madara and Pain have caused significant harm to Konoha., such as Pain wiping out the Village and all the chaos Madara caused during the Fourth Great Shinobi War. Sasuke was probably not forced to use the Rinnegan any more than necessary, an eye that caused severe grief to his hometown and many shinobi from other villages.
The common reason the Boruto series likes to use Sasuke to not abuse his special Rinnegan abilities is that they take a lot of chakra to use. Sasuke saying he doesn't have enough chakra has happened enough to become a popular meme among fans.
Besides his emotional rejection of the Rinnegan eyes that caused the world great sadness, Sasuke was also able to refrain from using the legendary eye so as not to draw attention to himself or his village. Many soldiers died during the Fourth War, some of them by Rinnegan users. Seeing a shinobi like Sasuke use his eyes could cause hostility among survivors or family members of those who have passed away.

Members of that ninja group find the bodies of missing powerful ninjas and dispose of them before their body parts, like Sasuke's clan's eyes, can be stolen and sold to someone. after the secrets that the shinobi's body possesses. The most likely reason Sasuke used the Rinnegan eye sparingly on missions was to avoid attracting attention or causing trouble with others who might see Sasuke's clan as a target.

Unfortunately, Sasuke lost his Rinnegan eye in one of the most intense parts of the Boruto series. Before that, however, he only used his eyes to create limited portals and switch his body position with something within his vision. While those abilities proved important and set up some incredible team attacks with characters like Naruto and Boruto, they a far cry from the feats Sasuke achieved in his final battle against Madara and Naruto.
Both Naruto and Sasuke became so powerful by the end of the Naruto series that it was difficult to create compelling villains capable of challenging them in the series that followed. The reason why Sasuke doesn't use the Rinnegan regularly is just speculation. However, it is very possible Boruto series wants to give its next generation time to shine, a shine that Sasuke could easily steal if he used up all the power he showed during the match.
