ATB wont drive both front wheels equally, it sends power to the wheel with most traction , in this situation the tratcion is negligible but your winching the tyres are presented with changing traction so the wheels turn accordingly, Nothing to worry about.

you'd do better to lower your tyre pressures and stop trying to steer out of the ruts.
