I bought a demo Iphone 14 pro from an Authorized Apple Reseller (a big electronic store in the country.)

It says demo - not for resale on the back, but the phone itself looks completely new like an original, it requires me to set it up again. Includes wifi, transferring data etc. Will the phone function like normal? Also have warranty from the store and insurance.

No. It shouldn't be fine.

Return it and get your money back.

True demo devices can not be re-sold and will not function normally.

If it's just a phone they pulled out of the box to use for a demo, then they are more than likely not an authorized retailer at all and the device most likely has no warranty, not to mention the wear on the battery that's undoubtedly been inflicted on it.

Return it and buy a new device from an authorized retailer.
