Comment:

 Any `tax_query`-like thing negates `is_home()`, which is never true when
 `is_archive()` is true, which is true because `is_category()` is true.
 Your best bet is to display sticky-by-category posts in your template
 using a subquery:

 `new WP_Query( array( 'post__in' => get_option( 'sticky_posts' ),
 'category__in => ....  )`
