When in Sim mode, limit orders and bracket orders do not trigger after my computer goes into sleep mode or is turned off.

1. How do I prevent this from happening in Sim mode (other than not ever letting my computer enter sleep mode or turning it off)?

2. Is this also how it functions with live trades?

1. You need to use this service:
Simulated Futures Trading Service

2. How this works is documented here:
Attached Orders: General Management of Attached Orders

To have the orders fully managed on the server side for live trading you need to use this service:
Sierra Chart / Trading Technologies Futures Order Routing Service

And enable this option:
Global Trade Settings Windows: Use Server Side Bracket Orders (if supported) (Global Settings >> General Trade Settings >> General)
