[Python] Static files won't load when using Vercel

When I host my project locally, everything works. My stylesheet loads without a problem, however when I deploy it to Vercel neither the admin static files nor my own load. Here is my settings.py:

STATIC_URL = '/static/'
STATIC_ROOT = os.path.join(BASE_DIR, 'staticfiles_build', 'static')
MEDIA_URLS ='/media/'
MEDIA_ROOT = os.path.join(BASE_DIR, 'media')


and my vercel.json:

{
"builds": [{
"src": "social/wsgi.py",
"use": "@vercel/python",
"config": { "maxLambdaSize": "15mb", "runtime": "python3.9" }
},
{
"src": "build_files.sh",
"use": "@vercel/static-build",
"config": { "distDir": "staticfiles_build" }
}],
"routes": [
{
"src": "/static/(.*)",
"dest": "/static/$1"
},
{
"src": "/(.*)",
"dest": "social/wsgi.py"
}
]
}


So far I have run the collect static command and I have tried changing the root and the url, but I am very lost and do not fully understand why it will not work.
