You do not have to accept the car back. You can demand to be compensated for its value as a totalled vehicle.

Demand immediate payment for the stolen car and an extension of your rental car coverage.

The fault is not yours, It is the fault of the thief who stole your car and USAA for placing their interests ahead of your interest. That may constitute bad faith on their part.
